MULTILAYER FUSER MEMBER AND METHOD OF MAKING

摘要

Disclosed herein is a multilayer fuser member (10) which includes a first layer (14) of an elastomeric material; an oil-impervious second layer (16), preferably a fluoroelastomer; and (3) a bonding layer (15) intermediate the first and second layers in which the proportion of the elastomeric material to the oil-impervious material gradually varies from substantially only the elastomeric material to substantially only the oil-impervious material. A method of making the fuser member by a spraying technique is also disclosed.
