ELECTROCONDUCTIVE RESIN BELT, METHOD OF PREPARING THE SAME, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS HAVING THE SAME

摘要

An electroconductive resin belt having a flame resistance of VTM-0 in UL94 standard when having a thickness of from 50 to 150 μm includes a first resin selected from the group consisting of polyetherimide-siloxane block copolymer, polyphenylene sulfide and polyimide; a second resin selected from the group consisting of polyetherimide, polyether sulfone, polyester, aliphatic polyamide, polyetherimide-siloxane block copolymer and polyamideimide; carbon as a first conductant; and at least one second conductant selected from the group consisting of particulate Al-doped ZnO, particulate Ga-doped ZnO, particulate Sb-doped SnO2, particulate In-doped SnO2, particulate P-doped SnO2 and the group consisting of metal oxides coated with any one of the second conductant group. The first resin forms a continuous phase, the second resin forms a dispersion phase, the carbon is unevenly distributed in the dispersion phase or an arc therearound, the second conductant is present in both of the dispersion phase and the continuous phase.
