Patent ID: 8568887

Claim:
A fuser member comprising: a substrate layer comprising a heat resistant resin selected from the group consisting of: polyimides, polyaramides, polyether ether ketones, polyether imides, polyphthalamides, polyamide-imides, polyketones; polyphenylsulfide, fluoropolyimides, fluoropolyurethanes and polyesters; and a surface layer disposed on the substrate layer comprising a polymer consisting of functionalized polyfluoropolyether and functionalized polybutadiene, wherein the functionalized butadiene is selected from the group consisting of: an isocyanate polybutadiene, a hydroxyl polybutadiene, a carboxyl acid polybutadiene, an ester polybutadiene, and an epoxy polybutadiene and wherein said polybutadiene is selected from the group consisting of: poly(1,3-butadiene), poly(1,4-butadiene), hydrogenated poly(1,3-butadiene) and hydrogenated poly(1,4-butadiene), wherein a weight ratio of functionalized polyfluoropolyether/functionalized polybutadiene is of from about 20/80 to about 80/20 wherein the fuser member fuses toner particles and forms images on a media substrate.
