Abstract:
Disclosed is a fuser member comprising a substrate, a layer thereover comprising a polymer, and, on the polymeric layer, a coating of a release agent comprising polyorganosiloxanes having tertiary amino functional groups on at least some of the molecules thereof.
Abstract:
A fuser member having a substrate, an outer silicone rubber layer; and a release agent having a combination of fluorosilicone release agent and a non-functional release agent.
Abstract:
Elastomer compositions comprising a blend of a fluoroelastomer comprising a terpolymer of vinylidene fluoride, tetrafluoroethylene and hexafluoropropylene and a chlorofluoroelastomer comprising a co-or terpolymer of vinylidene fluoride, chlorotrifluoroethylene and 0-40 mole % of hexafluoropropylene are provided. The composition may be cured and is particularly suitable for use as a surface release layer for fusing systems used in electrostatographic imaging systems.
Abstract:
A fuser member having a substrate, an outer polymeric layer; and a release agent having a combination of fluorosilicone release agent and a functional polydimethylsiloxane release agent having amino, mercapto, hydride, carboxy, and/or other functionality.
Abstract:
A method for providing a crosslinked fluorocarbon elastomer surface on a fuser member supporting substrate, which includes mixing together an acid acceptor, an emulsifier, water, and non-amino based crosslinker with a latex fluorocarbon elastomer, and the crosslinker is a diepoxy or disilylalkoxy-based crosslinker, or a combination thereof.
Abstract:
A fuser component useful in electrostatographic machines, having a substrate, and thereover a silicone rubber layer having the crosslinked product of at least one platinum catalyzed addition curable vinyl terminated polyorganosiloxane, aluminum oxide fillers, iron oxide fillers, a crosslinking agent, and having an optional outer fluoroelastomer layer.
Abstract:
A fuser member having a substrate, an outer fluoroelastomer layer having one of i) copolymers of two of vinylidene fluoride, hexafluoropropylene and tetrafluoroethylene; ii) terpolymers of vinylidene fluoride, hexafluoropropylene and tetrafluoroethylene; and iii) tetrapolymers of vinylidene fluoride, hexafluoropropylene, tetrafluoroethylene, and a cure site monomer; and a fluorinated silicone release agent.
Abstract:
Fuser members and processes are provided for crosslinked fluorocarbon elastomer surfaces containing a fluorocarbon elastomer and a non-amino crosslinker together with methods for providing a crosslinked fluorocarbon elastomer surface on a fuser member supporting substrate which include mixing together an acid acceptor, an emulsifier, water, and non-amino based crosslinker with a latex fluorocarbon elastomer.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a fusing release agent comprising the reaction product of a primary- or secondary-amino-functionalized polyorganosiloxane oil and a low molecular weight, non-sterically-hindered aldehyde or ketone.
