Embodiment

[0071] The microcapsules containing the restorative material can be prepared by any conventional method or by any other method obvious to the person skilled in the art, for example by encapsulation by in situ polymerization in an oil-in-water emulsion. The self-healing layer of the fuser element may be prepared by any conventional method or any other method apparent to those skilled in the art that will produce the desired coating.

[0072] A fixing member incorporating microcapsules was prepared according to the following procedure. The coated melt was fabricated by coating a layer of VITON rubber and AO700 curing agent (N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, available from United Chemical Technologies, Inc.) on the metal substrate. Roller. The fusing roll substrate was a cylindrical aluminum fusing roll core approximately 3 inches in diameter and 16 inches in length that was degreased, sandblasted, degreased and covered with a silane adhesive as described in US 5,3...
