<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a development unit that inhibits or prevents a spacer of a developing roller from being degraded by nitrate formed by a discharge product, so as to allow obtainment of excellent images over a long term, and an image formation device equipped with the same. <P>SOLUTION: A developing roller 20 is provided with spacers 21, 21 on both edges thereof. An absorption layer 27 such as a zeolite layer that absorbs and removes a discharge product generated along discharge is formed at least on a circumference 21a abutting on a photoreceptor 3, or preferably on whole surfaces of the spacers 21. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
