Fixing roll and silicone gel for use therein

摘要

A low durometer fixing roll is described comprising a roller shaft, a peelable organic resin layer established on the external circumferential surface of the roller shaft, and a silicone gel layer interposed between them. The silicone gel composition comprises (A) an alkenyl-substituted organopolysiloxane, (B) an organohydrogenpolysiloxane, in a quantity sufficient to provide 0.1 to 5 moles of silicon-bonded hydrogen in component (B) per mole of alkenyl groups in component (A) and (C) a sufficient quantity of platinum catalyst for curing the silicone gel composition.
