Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, it is difficult for the above-mentioned conductive rubber roller to adjust the resistance value of the rubber layer.
In addition, uneven dispersion of conductive particles in the rubber layer may lead to uneven local resistance, resulting in uneven charging, or damage to the photoreceptor due to partial leakage.

Embodiment 1

[0093] Follow the steps below to make a image 3 A transfer roller of the configuration shown.

[0094] A conductive cylindrical base material (metal core) 31 made of stainless steel with a diameter of 8 mm was prepared. In addition, the materials described below were mixed into a conductive elastic layer material with a pressure kneader.

[0095] · NBR (33.5% nitrile component) 76 parts

[0096] (Trade name: Nipol DN 214; manufactured by Japan Zeon Co., Ltd.)

[0097] ・Alkyl ether polymer (trade name: ZSN8030, manufactured by Japan Zeon Co., Ltd.) 20 parts

[0098] ・Epichlorohydrin rubber (trade name: EPICHLOMER H, manufactured by Daiso Co., Ltd.) 4 parts

[0099] · Zinc oxide 5 parts

[0100] ·Stearic acid 2 parts

[0101] · Hydrotalcite (hydrotalcite) 3 parts

[0102] · 20 parts of calcium carbonate

[0103] The NBR has the above formulas (A-1) and (A-2) as monomer units, and the copolymerization ratio (molar ratio) of (A-1) and (A-2) is 33.5:66.5. In addition, the...

Embodiment 2

[0124] A charging roller was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that 64 parts of NBR, 6 parts of epichlorohydrin rubber, and 30 parts of alkyl ether polymer were used. The resistance value of the obtained charging roller was 2.80×10 7 Ω. In addition, its max. / min. value per revolution is 1.04. The hardness is 32.0°asker C.

[0125] In addition, when the structure of the conductive elastic layer of this example was observed using a transmission electron microscope as in Example 1, it was found that it had a structure in which an island phase composed of an alkyl ether polymer was dispersed in a continuous phase composed of NBR. The average size of the island phases is 0.45 μm, and their average distance is 0.25 μm.

[0126] As in Example 1, the above charging roller was mounted on an electrophotographic device as a transfer roller, and the same evaluation as in Example 1 was performed using this electrophotographic device. As a result, a good image was obtai...

Embodiment 3

[0129] A charging roller was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that 40 parts of NBR, 10 parts of epichlorohydrin rubber, and 50 parts of alkyl ether polymer were used. The resistance value of this charging roller is 7.81×10 6 Ω. In addition, its max. / min. value per revolution is 1.05. The hardness is 34.0°asker C.

[0130] As in Example 1, when the conductive elastic layer of this example was observed using a transmission electron microscope, it was found that NBR constituted a continuous phase and the alkyl ether polymer constituted an island phase. At this time, the average size of the island phase was 0.82 μm, and the average distance thereof was 0.32 μm.

[0131] In the same manner as in Example 1, the above-mentioned charging roller was mounted on an electrophotographic device as a transfer roller. With this electrophotographic device, when a solid black image was evaluated using a dry paper, a good image was obtained. Furthermore, when 500,000 sheets...
