Abstract: An adhesive having a resin selected from polyvinyl butyral resins, phenolic resins, epoxy resins, and mixtures thereof, and at least one type of filler such as a carbon filler, for use in seaming components useful in electrostatographic, contact electrostatic, digital and other like machines.

Abstract: A process for seaming seamed component for use in seaming members useful in electrostatographic, contact electrostatic, digital and other like machines, including: a) compounding an adhesive; b) forming the adhesive in contact with a first side of the seam and the mutually mating members; c) contacting the adhesive and first side of the seam to a first heated clamp; d) contacting the second side of the seam to a second heated clamp; e) subjecting the adhesive in contact with the mutually mating members to a first cure at a first temperature to form a cured adhesive; and f) subjecting the cured adhesive to a second cure at a second temperature to form a dual-cured adhesive, wherein the second temperature is higher than the first temperature.

Abstract: A seamed flexible belt having a substrate, a seam having interlocking seam members, and an optional overcoat, wherein the interlocking seam members are held together by an adhesive having a resistive, hot-melt processible, thermosetting resin and carbon filler, for use in electrostatographic, contact electrostatic, digital and other like machines.

Abstract: A method for producing a liquid toner composition includes: melt-mixing a colorant and a thermoplastic resin in an extruder to homogeneously disperse the colorant in the thermoplastic resin to form a colorant/resin mixture; mixing the colorant/resin mixture with a non-polar liquid to form a dispersion; and cold grinding the dispersion to form toner particles of the colorant/resin mixture dispersed in the non-polar liquid, wherein the particles have an average particle size of less than about 20 &mgr;m.
