Abstract
There is described an intermediate transfer member including a substrate layer comprising a polyimide and a surface layer. The surface layer includes a functionalized polyfluoropolyether and functionalized polybutadiene in a weight ratio of functionalized polyfluoropolyether/functionalized polybutadiene of from about 20/80 to about 80/20 and conductive particles. The method of manufacturing the intermediate transfer member is also described.

A intermediate transfer member comprising:
- a substrate layer comprising polyimide;
- and
- a surface layer comprising functionalized polyfluoropolyether and functionalized polybutadiene in a weight ratio of functionalized polyfluoropolyether/functionalized polybutadiene of from about 20/80 to about 80/20 and conductive particles.
A method of making an intermediate transfer member comprising:
- a) adding and reacting functionalized polyfluoropolyether, functionalized polybutadiene, a solvent, conductive particles and a catalyst to provide a coating composition of functionalized polyfluoropolyether and functionalized polybutadiene in a weight ratio of from about 20 to 80 to about 80 to 20;
- b) coating the coating composition on a substrate;
- and
- c) curing the coating composition to form a surface layer.
