Title:
FUNCTIONAL MEMBER, DEVELOPING ROLLER AND DEVELOPING METHOD USING THE SAME AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2008145567
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a functional member produced by mixing conductive or semi-conductive particles in a polymeric material layer, to vary the resistance value of the polymeric material layer in proportion to the added quantity, while having high durability and causing no defect in a formed image when using the polymeric material layer as a covering layer, and to provide a developing method using this developing roller, and an image forming apparatus.
The functional member has a covering layer formed on a conductive member, wherein the covering layer contains the conductive or semi-conductive particles having a hydrophilic or hydrophobic group dispersed in non-conductive polymeric material.
