Intermediate transfer member and image forming apparatus having the same

An intermediate transfer member used for an electrophotographic image forming apparatus,

• wherein the intermediate transfer member has a resin substrate layer and a surface layer comprising a cured product of a composition containing a polyfunctional (meth)acrylic monomer and a fine particle of metal oxide,
• the polyfunctional (meth)acrylic monomer comprises a number of alkylene oxide structure and b number of (meth)acryloyl group (with the proviso that a and b are a positive integer),
• a and b satisfy relationships of a/b≦10 and b≧3,
• the alkylene oxide structure comprises an alkylene group with a carbon atom number of 2 or more, and
• the fine particle of metal oxide has on its surface a structure represented by a following General Formula (1):
• CH2═C(R)COO(CH2)nSi— General Formula (1)
• in the formula, R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and n is an integer of from 7 to 17.
