Abstract
The invention relates to an imaging member comprising an image layer and a support comprising at least one layer comprising an inorganic particle having an aspect ratio of at least 10 to 1, a lateral dimension of between 0.01 μm and 5 μm, and a vertical dimension between 0. 5 nm and 10 nm, and polymeric resin.
Claims53
An imaging member comprising an image layer and a support comprising at least one extruded layer comprising an inorganic particle having an aspect ratio of at least 10 to 1, a lateral dimension of between 0.01 μm and 5 μm, and a vertical dimension between 0.5 nm and 10 nm, and polymeric resin.
An imaging member comprising an image layer and a support, wherein said support comprises at least one layer comprising an inorganic particle and polymeric resin, wherein said inorganic particle is at least one member selected from the group consisting of hydrotalcite and mica having an aspect ratio of at least 10 to 1, a lateral dimension of between 0.01 μm and 5 μm, and a vertical dimension between 0.5 nm and 10 nm.
An imaging member comprising an image layer and a support comprising one layer comprising an inorganic particle having an aspect ratio of at least 10 to 1, a lateral dimension of between 0.01 μm and 5 μm, and a vertical dimension between 0.5 nm and 10 nm, and polyester resin, wherein said one layer comprising an inorganic particle comprises smectite clay and polyester resin in an extrusion coated layer.
