Problems solved by technology

Specifically, according to the basic combination of Example 3 in Table 1 of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-183866 (excluding ultraviolet absorbers, HALS, coloring agents, etc. that hardly affect compression set, conductivity, etc.) The comparative example 4 in the following table 2 of the present invention has the problem that the compression set is large, and good physical properties cannot be obtained as a conductive member.
As an antistatic agent, a conductive plasticizer material can also be considered, but it is not suitable for the above-mentioned conductive parts because it impairs the mechanical properties, deteriorates the compression set, and contaminates the photoreceptor.
[0010] In addition, ionically conductive polymers that have been put into practical use for conductive parts are mainly vulcanized rubber compositions, and such vulcanized rubber compositions have the problem that they cannot be recycled.
Although it is also possible to use a chloride-based thermoplastic elastomer instead of a vulcanized rubber composition, the problem is that the compression set is large and the photoreceptor is contaminated.
In addition, because it is a chloride, harmful gases such as hydrogen chloride and dioxin may be generated during combustion. With the general increase in awareness of environmental protection issues today, how to properly dispose of it when it is discarded has become a difficulty.

Embodiment 1 to Embodiment 6

[0138]Any one of Examples 1 to 6 is shown in Table 1. In the mixture (A1) containing hydrogenated styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer and olefin resin, and a required amount of softener, the The mixture (A2) of EPDM as the main component of the required amount of softener is dynamically cross-linked and dispersed to form a conductive polymer composition, and each embodiment will contain at least a polyether-containing block copolymer resin and a metal salt The ion conductive resin type antistatic agent is dispersed in a specified volume percentage. Furthermore, the compounding quantity of the ion conductive conductive agent of Example 6 was set to 6 weight part which is less than 10 weight part.

Embodiment 7

[0196] In Examples 7 to 13, 200 parts by weight of EPDM (containing 100% oil) and a dynamic crosslinking mixture of 100 parts by weight of a hydrogenated styrene-based TPE mixture were used as the thermoplastic elastomer composition. In Example 7 and Examples 10 to 13, Conductive Agent 1 was used as an ion-conductive conductive agent containing a polyether-containing block copolymer resin and a metal salt. The compounding amount in Examples 10 and 11 is a ratio of 9.8% by weight to 28.6% by weight of the matrix component in the thermoplastic elastomer composition. Example 12 is 4.8% by weight, and Example 13 is 37.5% by weight.
