<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a roller for an image forming apparatus with which roller performance is stabilized and a high-quality image free of density unevenness can be obtained and an image forming apparatus. <P>SOLUTION: The roller for the image forming apparatus is constituted by disposing a foaming elastic body layer composed of urethane as a principal component to an arbor. The ratio of an absorbance a of 1,720 cm<SP>-1</SP>and absorbance b of 1,650 cm<SP>-1</SP>in IR spectra on the surface of the foaming elastic body layer is a/b≥1. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
