Abstract: There is provided an image-forming device including: a photosensitive member having a photosensitive layer including an organic photoconductive material, a charging devices, an image exposure devices for exposing the pre-transfer material to form a latent image, a developing devices for developing the latent image with a toner to form a transferable toner image on the surface of the photosensitive member, a pre-transfer exposure devices for exposing the photosensitive member carrying the toner image, and a transfer devices for transferring the toner image to a transfer material; the charging devices, image exposure devices, developing devices pre-transfer exposure devices, and transfer devices are disposed in this order along the moving direction of the photosensitive member; wherein the light from the pre-transfer exposure devices is scattered light and the intensity of the scattered light is two or more times that of the light used for the image exposure.

Abstract: A cartridge for use in fixing an anchor bolt that encludes a fluidtight constructed casing having therein a first fluidtight chamber and a second fluidtight chamber separated from the first chamber, the first chamber containing a resin composed mainly of an ester of an epoxy resin with an organic acid comprising acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or a mixture thereof, the second chamber containing a curing agent for the resin. By the use of such a cartridge in fixing an anchor bolt to a base, there can be attained a quick fixation of the anchor bolt to the base, a high adhesive strength between the anchor bolt and the base, and a high chemical resistance of the cured resin, with little or no lowering of the adhesive strength for an prolonged period of time.

Abstract: A substantially nonmagnetic toner comprising a colorant and a binder comprising a homopolymer or copolymer having a ratio (Mw/Mn) of a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of a number average molecular weight (Mn) of less than 5.0 is formed in a thin layer on a toner carrying member. The layer of toner is carried to a developing zone at which an image bearing member is disposed to face the toner carrying member with a clearance larger than the toner layer thickness and an electrostatic image on the image bearing member is developed with the thin layer of toner. The toner binder resin preferably comprises a copolymer of a vinyl monomer and an amonoacrylic monomer.

Abstract: A process for preparing photoconductive cadmium sulfide comprising steps of forming precipitated cadmium sulfide particles, primarily firing said cadmium sulfide particles, deionizing said cadmium sulfide particles, and secondarily firing said cadmium sulfide particles.
