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:
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:
An apparatus comprised of a charging component, a development component, a transport component, a photoconductive component, and a fusing component, and wherein the development component contains a toner comprising at least one binder in an optional amount of from about 85 to about 99 percent by weight, at least one colorant in an optional amount of from about 0.5 to about 15 percent by weight, and calcium stearate in an optional amount of from about 0.05 to about 2 percent by weight and wherein following triboelectric contact with carrier particles, the toner has a charge Q measured in femtocoulombs per particle diameter D measured in microns (Q/D) of from about null0.1 to about null1 fC/nullm with a variation during development of from about 0 to about 0.25 fC/nullm and wherein the distribution is substantially unimodal and possesses a peak width of from about 0.1 fC/nullm to about 0.5 fC/nullm and the toner possesses a charge to mass M, as measured in grams, ratio (Q/M) of from about null25 to about null70 nullC/gram with variation of Q/M during development of from about 0 to about 15 nullC/gram.
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 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:
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.
