Abstract
A fuser member comprising a support and a layer overlying the support, the layer including a fluorocarbon thermoplastic random copolymer, a curing agent having a bisphenol residue, a particulate filler containing zinc oxide, an aminosiloxane, and antimony-doped tin oxide particles, the cured fluorocarbon thermoplastics random copolymer having subunits of: -(CH2CF2)x-, -(CF2CF(CF3)y-, and -(CF2CF2)z-, wherein x is from 1 to 50 or 60 to 80 mole percent, y is from 10 to 90 mole percent, z is from 10 to 90 mole percent, and x+y+z equal 100 mole percent.
