    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a developer carrying member that bears and conveys developer. The developer carrying member has at least a base and a surface layer, with the surface layer having an electron donating portion that mainly donates charge to the developer when the developer and the surface layer make frictional contact to exchange charge and an electron accepting portion that mainly accepts charge from the developer when the developer and the surface layer makes frictional contact to exchange charge. A controller applies an AC voltage to the developer carrying member during a period in which an image forming operation is not performed and the developer carrying member is driven, with the AC voltage being different from that applied during an image forming period, and a rotating speed of the developer carrying member during a non-image forming period is slower than that during an image forming period.

    Abstract: A method for producing an electrophotographic photosensitive member in which leakage hardly occurs is provided. For this, in the method for producing an electrophotographic photosensitive member according to the present invention, a coating liquid for a conductive layer is prepared using a solvent, a binder material, and a metallic oxide particle having a water content of not less than 1.0% by mass and not more than 2.0% by mass; using the coating liquid for a conductive layer, a conductive layer having a volume resistivity of not less than 1.0×108 Ω·cm and not more than 5.0×1012 Ω·cm is formed; the mass ratio (P/B) of the metallic oxide particle (P) to the binder material (B) in the coating liquid for a conductive layer is not less than 1.5/1.0 and not more than 3.5/1.0; and the metallic oxide particle is selected from the group consisting of a titanium oxide particle coated with tin oxide doped with phosphorus, a titanium oxide particle coated with tin oxide doped with tungsten, and a titanium oxide particle coated with tin oxide doped with fluorine.

    Abstract: A developer container includes a container, provided with an opening and configured to accommodate a developer; a sealing member configured to cover the opening; and an unsealing member configured to unseal the opening by moving the sealing member. The sealing member opposes the container at a central opposing portion positioned in a central side and at an end opposing portion positioned at an end side with respect to a longitudinal direction of the unsealing member. The sealing member and the container are bonded to each other at bonding portion which is at least a part of the central opposing portion. The bonding force at the bonding portion of the central opposing portion is larger than a bonding force between the sealing member and the container at the end opposing portion.
