<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide conductive particles for obtaining a conductive member that has high wear resistance and high selflubricity, and to provide conductive members, such as a conductive roller and conductive sheet, which contain the conductive particles. <P>SOLUTION: The conductive particle 23 has a conductive layer 232 on the surface of an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene resin particle 231. The conductive member is a conductive roller, conductive sheet, or the like, in which an insulation material such as a rubber layer 22 contains the conductive particles 23. The wear resistance and selflubricity of the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene resin of the conductive particles make it possible to form a conductive member that has excellent wear resistance and high selflubricity, and prolong the lifetime. In addition, it is used to form a chargeable roller or sheet having a required electric resistance characteristic and improves the reliability of an image forming apparatus. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
