Electrophotographic Belt, Electrophotographic Apparatus, Process for Producing the Electrophotographic Belt, and Intermediate Transfer Belt

摘要

An electrophotographic belt is disclosed including a base layer which contains a thermoplastic resin and has a mass loss percentage of 0.30% or more after a Taber abrasion test (ASTM D-1175; at a load of 4.9 N and 500 revolutions) and a cured resin film which has been formed on the base layer by coating, contains conductive particles and has a thickness of from 0.5 mum or more to 3.0 mum or less. The cured resin film has at its surface a mass loss percentage of 0.050% or less after the Taber abrasion test. The electrophotographic belt has volume resistivity rhov (Omegacm) and surface resistivity rhos (Omega/square) which satisfy the following expressions (1), (2) and (3): 106<=rhov 108<=rhos rhos/rhov>=102 (3).
