Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a rotary member for fixing having high abrasion resistance and durability and besides, achieving high-efficiency mold releasing property without the use of an offset inhibitor by applying silicon resin on the external surface of a half-cured silicon rubber layer and thermally curing both. CONSTITUTION:A core metal 1 is degreased or blasted as a foundation treatment, and then an adhesive primer is applied. After this, the external surface is coated by a silicon-rubber layer 2 on an injection molder and the coating is heated into a half-cured state (approx. 150 deg.C/min). Next, toluene-diluted silicon resin 3 is sprayed to the external surface as an additional coat to provide a required thickness. This final coat is dried by air at room temperature. Later the silicon rubber layer 2 and the silicon resin 3 are thermally cured (approx. 150 deg.C/ 15min) simultaneously on an open dryer. Thus a desired rotary element is obtained, if necessary, by post-process curing.

The cause of such a difference is the adhesive strength between the silicone rubber layer and the silicone resin, and the adhesive strength seems to depend on the cured state of the silicone rubber. In order to investigate this, the degree of swelling of the silicone rubber layer in toluene was measured and the results are shown in Table 2.

It can be seen that there is no difference in the degree of swelling before coating with the silicone resin and after curing the silicone resin, indicating that the silicone rubber layer is completely cured at 760° C./j minutes. On the other hand, when the curing condition is 760°C//min, the degree of swelling before silicone resin coating is
It is higher than that in the case of 60°C/-j minutes, indicating that it is in a semi-cured state at this stage and is completely cured after the silicone resin is cured thereafter.

E 9140 and SR2410 are excellent, and if you also take image quality into consideration, - SE which is a liquid type soft silicone resin
It can be seen that 9140 is the best. The reason for this is that in the case of hard silicone resins such as SR2411 and SR24]0, the surface hardness is too hard and destroys the elasticity of the silicone rubber layer, whereas in the case of soft silicone resins, such This is because high image quality can be obtained by fully utilizing the elasticity of the four layers of silicone rubber.
