Abstract

There is provided an elastic member including a surface resin layer including a crosslinked product of a dimethyl silicone compound having a reactive group and a fluoroalkyl compound having a reactive group.

Claims (14)

1. An elastic member comprising:

a surface resin layer including a crosslinked product of a dimethyl silicone compound having a reactive group and a fluoroalkyl compound having a reactive group,

wherein the dimethyl silicone compound having a reactive group is a straight-chain dimethyl silicone compound having a reactive group and a branched-chain dimethyl silicone compound having a reactive group and

wherein a ratio of parts by mass of the straight-chain dimethyl silicone compound to parts by mass of the branched-chain dimethyl silicone compound is in a range from 8:2 to 7:3.

2. The elastic member according to claim 1 ,

wherein the reactive group in the dimethyl silicone compound having a reactive group is a hydroxyl group.

3. The elastic member according to claim 1 ,

wherein the reactive group in the fluoroalkyl compound having a reactive group is an alkoxy group.

4. A fixing belt comprising:

an elastic member comprising a surface resin layer including a crosslinked product of a dimethyl silicone compound having a reactive group and a fluoroalkyl compound having a reactive group,

wherein the elastic member is in a belt-shape.

5. A process cartridge comprising:

an elastic member comprising a surface resin layer including a crosslinked product of a dimethyl silicone compound having a reactive group and a fluoroalkyl compound having a reactive group.

6. An image forming apparatus comprising: an elastic member comprising a surface resin layer including a crosslinked product of a dimethyl silicone compound having a reactive group and a fluoroalkyl compound having a reactive group.
