Anti-offsetting oil

Abstract

An anti-offsetting oil including an organopolysiloxane having the formula (1) below and containing low molecular weight organopolysiloxanes having a molecular weight of 3,000 or less in a content of 50 ppm or less. ##STR1## wherein R.sub.f 's represent a perfluoroalkyl which may contain at least one ether linkage; R's represent a monovalent hydrocarbon group; Y's represent a divalent organic group having 2 to 5 carbon atoms; a represents an integer of 1 or more and b represents an integer of 0 or more, provided that a and b satisfy 3a+3b+2=15 to 4,000; and c and d are an integer of 0 to 3. This fluid has a good wettability to silicone rubber or fluorine forming the surfaces of fixing rolls of electrophotographic copying machines, and hence can effectively prevent offset. Since it contains no low-molecular weight organopolysiloxanes, the electric-contact failure may hardly occur.
