Abstract: An image developing material comprising particles, said particles including finely divided toner material and a minor proportion based on the weight of said toner material of dicarboxylic acid bis-amides.This invention relates in general to developing material and more particularly, to improved imaging materials, their manufacture and use.The formation and development of latent images on the surface of photoconductive materials is well known. The basic process as taught by C. F. Carlson in U.S. Pat. No. 2,297,691, involves placing a uniform electrostatic charge on a photoconductive insulating layer, exposing the layer to a light and shadow image to dissipate the charge on the areas of the layer exposed to the light and developing the resulting latent electrostatic image by depositing on the image a finely divided electroscopic material referred to in the art as "toner".

Abstract: An image developing material comprising particles, said particles including finely divided toner material and a minor proportion based on the weight of said toner material of primary and secondary amides of .omega.- and cis alkenoic acids.

Abstract: An improved process is given whereby an imaging surface is treated with compositions which include dicarboxylic acid bis-amides.

Abstract: An improved process is given whereby an imaging surface is treated with compositions which include substantially unbranched, primary and secondary amides of .omega. -- and cis alkenoic acids.

Abstract: A contact fuser assembly for use in an electrostatic reproducing apparatus including an internally heated fuser roll structure comprising a rigid, thermally conductive core which is coated during operation of the assembly with a thin layer of a normally solid thermally stable material with subsequent application of a liquid release agent to the coated core. In the preferred embodiment of the invention the coating material comprises a fluorocarbon telomer such as Vydax 1000 and the liquid release agent comprises a liquid silicone oil.
