摘要:
A protecting layer is formed on a surface of an image carrier with a protecting agent that contains at least an organic compound having melting property of which penetration at 25° C. ranges from 3 millimeters to 30 millimeters, and organic compound particles having thermal decomposition property of which a weight average particle size ranges from 2 micrometers to 20 micrometers. A melting temperature of the organic compound is lower than a decomposition temperature of the organic compound particles, and a volume ratio of the organic compound to the organic compound particles ranges from 99/1 to 50/50.
摘要:
A protective agent for an image bearing member of an image forming apparatus. The protective agent is applied onto a surface of the image bearing member and includes a hydrophobic organic compound (A), an inorganic fine particle (B), and an inorganic lubricant (C).
摘要:
A protective layer forming device including an image-bearing member protecting agent which contains a fatty acid metal salt and an inorganic lubricant, a protecting agent supply member configured to apply a surface of the image bearing member with the image-bearing member protecting agent, and a leveling member configured to level off the image-bearing member protecting agent applied on the surface of the image bearing member, wherein the leveling member serves as a cleaning blade having a ridge part with an obtuse angle, which comes into contact with the surface of the image bearing member in a direction counter to the rotation of the image bearing member.
