Patent ID: 7048970

Claim:
A method of making a fuser member having a support comprising the steps of: A) providing a support; B) coating a coating composition contained in an organic solvent onto the support, thereby forming a layer of the coating composition on said support, said coating composition comprising a fluorocarbon thermoplastic random copolymer, a curing agent having a bisphenol residue, a particulate filler containing zinc oxide, antimony-doped tin oxide particles, and an aminosiloxane, the fluorocarbon thermoplastic random copolymer having subunits of: —(CH 2 CF 2 )x—, —(CF 2 CF(CF 3 )y—, and —(CF 2 CF 2 )z—, wherein x is from 1 to 50 or 60 to 80 mole percent, y is from 10 to 90 mole percent, z is from 10 to 90 mole percent, x+y+z equals 100 mole percent; and curing said layer of the coating composition on said support for 5–10 hours at a maximum temperature in the range of 25° C.–120° C.
