Patent ID: 10976683

Abstract:
Provided is an electrophotographic member in which density unevenness of an image is less likely to occur even in the case of outputting an image after standing in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment for a long period of time. The electrophotographic member includes: an electroconductive substrate; an electroconductive elastic layer on or above the substrate; and an insulating portion on the elastic layer, an outer surface of the electrophotographic member being composed of an outer surface of the insulating portion and an outer surface of the elastic layer that is not covered with the insulating portion, wherein the elastic layer contains a urethane resin as a first resin, and the elastic layer has a region from the outer surface of the elastic layer constituting the outer surface of the electrophotographic member to a depth of 1 μm, the region further containing a second resin.
