LOW-FRICTION SLIDING MATERIAL AND LOW-FRICTION PRESSURIZING MEMBER FOR TONER FIXING DEVICES

摘要

A low-friction sliding material wherein 60% or more of the sliding surface of a sliding member is covered with fluorine fibers or composite fibers containing fluorine fibers, said fibers being arranged in parallel on at least the outermost surface of the sliding surface in a direction that is almost the same as the sliding direction. The present invention provides a low-friction sliding material which is free from the occurrence of fabric separation or the like extremely simply in comparison to conventional low-friction sliding materials.
