Problems solved by technology

However, since polyamideimide has lower mechanical strength and withstand voltage than polyimide, there are problems of resistance change and strength reduction due to repeated use, and there is a risk of breaking
[0007] However, even if these intermediate transfer belts are used, the improvement in durability is not sufficient, and an intermediate transfer belt using polyamide-imide with less resistance change and lower strength even after repeated use is desired.

Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intermediate transfer belt which uses a polyamideimide and has excellent durability. Another object of the present invention is to provide an image forming apparatus including the intermediate transfer belt. The intermediate transfer belt according to the present invention is used in an electrophotographic image forming apparatus, in which theintermediate transfer belt contains a polyamideimide, a conductive agent, and a dispersant, and the dispersant has a block polymer structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an intermediate transfer belt and an image forming apparatus, and more specifically, the present invention relates to an intermediate transfer belt having excellent durability and an image forming apparatus including the intermediate transfer belt. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, as an electrophotographic image forming apparatus using an intermediate transfer belt, a toner image formed on a photoreceptor is primarily transferred to the intermediate transfer belt, and the toner image on the intermediate transfer belt is transferred to the intermediate transfer belt. The image is secondarily transferred to a transfer material such as transfer paper (recording paper). That is, the toner image formed on the photoreceptor and charged with a specified polarity is transferred to the intermediate transfer belt by electrostatic force, and then the toner image on the intermediate transfer belt is transferred to the ...
