  • Publication number: 20230219777
    Abstract: A conveying belt has a cylindrical base layer, and a surface layer that is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the base layer. The base layer contains polyimide or polyamide-imide, and has an elastic modulus from 3-7 GPa, inclusive. The surface layer is configured as a cured object from a resin composition that contains a fluororesin having a hydroxy group, an isocyanate curing agent, and a silicone copolymer. The silicone copolymer is a copolymer containing a silicone unit and another kind of unit not having a siloxane skeleton, has a hydroxy group, and contains siloxane units in a proportion of at least 95 mol% and less than 100 mol%, or from 40-70 mol%, inclusive. The silicone copolymer content in the resin composition is 1-5 parts by mass, inclusive, relative to a total 100 parts by mass of the fluororesin and the isocyanate curing agent.

  • Patent number: 9857725
    Abstract: An electrophotographic device member R is used in an electrophotographic device. The electrophotographic device member R has a surface layer 1. The surface layer 1 has a matrix polymer 11 forming a skeleton of the surface layer 1 and a surface modifier 12 contained in the matrix polymer 11. The surface modifier 12 is composed of a copolymer containing, in its molecule, a first polymerization unit derived from a (meth)acrylate having a silicone group 121 and a second polymerization unit derived from a (meth)acrylate having a fluorine-containing group 122.

  • Patent number: 8235879
    Abstract: A charging roll includes a shaft and an ionically conductive elastic layer formed around the shaft. The ionically conductive elastic layer is formed of a rubber composition free of any electron-conductive agent and containing 0.7 to 1.0 parts by weight of a peroxide cross-linking agent per 100 parts by weight of an ion-conductive rubber. The ion-conductive rubber is formed of at least one of an epichlorohydrin rubber and a nitrile rubber, and a percentage of a rubber component in the ionically conductive elastic layer measured by thermogravimetric analysis is 90% or more by weight.
