<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fixing belt, a fixing device and an image forming apparatus capable of suppressing reduction in the efficiency of induction heating of a heat-generating metal layer that generates heat by an electromagnetic induction effect. <P>SOLUTION: A metal layer included in the fixing belt comprises two nonmagnetic metal layers and a heat-generating metal layer which is interposed by the nonmagnetic metal layers and generates heat by the electromagnetic induction effect. The layer thickness of the metal layer is 30 to 60 μm, and each nonmagnetic metal layer has a thickness of 1 to 2 when the thickness of the heat-generating metal layer is set to 1. Thereby, reduction in the efficiency of induction heating in the heat-generating metal layer that generates heat by the electromagnetic induction effect can be suppressed. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
