Abstract

A roller for electrophotography that has a low electric resistance value and that is still further reduced in contaminating property of other member is provided. The roller includes an electro-conductive mandrel and a surface layer having an electro-conductive foam. The electro-conductive foam includes a vulcanized product of an unvulcanized rubber composition including an acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber and a hydrin rubber. The vulcanized product has a matrix-domain structure having a sea phase and an island phase, contains ethylene oxide of 8.0% by mass or more and 20.0% by mass or less based on a total amount of the vulcanized product, and has a spin-spin relaxation time T2 of 750 [mu]s<T2<930 [mu]s.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a roller for electrophotography used in an electrophotographic image forming apparatus and a method of manufacturing the same. The present invention also relates to an electrophotographic image forming apparatus. Background technique [0002] An electrophotographic image forming apparatus generally includes: an image bearing member such as an electrophotographic photosensitive member, a charging member that charges the surface of the image bearing member, an exposure device in which the surface of the image bearing member is irradiated with light adjusted according to image information, by A developing member that develops a developer (toner) to form a visible image (toner image) on an image bearing member, and a transfer member that transfers the visible image on the image bearing member to a recording material . [0003] In an electrophotographic image forming apparatus, a roller for electrophotography such as a tra...
