Abstract: A developing roller suppresses scattering of toner during a developing process and provides a further higher-quality electrophotographic image. The developing roller has a mandrel, an elastic layer provided on the circumference of the mandrel, and a surface layer provided on the circumference of the elastic layer. The surface layer contains a urethane resin serving as a binder and urethane resin particles dispersed in the binder, for forming convex portions on the surface of the surface layer. The surface of the urethane resin particles is partly covered with fine inorganic particles containing at least one element selected from silicon, titanium and aluminum and the urethane resin particles are in direct contact with the binder at the surface onto which the fine inorganic particles are not attached.

Abstract: The present invention intends to provide a method of producing a developing roller capable of providing high-quality electrophotographic images under a variety of environments. The method of producing a developing roller according to the present invention is a method of producing a developing roller having a mandrel, a resin layer on the outer periphery of the mandrel, and a surface layer on the outer periphery of the resin layer, the method including the step of curing a mixture containing a carbon black, a specific diol, and a specific isocyanate compound to form the surface layer.
