Heater member with conformable, cured fluorocarbon thermoplastic random copolymer overcoat

A heater member for transferring heat to a fusing member used to heat fix a toner image to a substrate, the heater member comprising:

• a core;
• a conformable base cushion layer overlying the core;
• and
• an outer layer overlying the base cushion layer,
• the outer layer comprising a cured fluorocarbon thermoplastic random copolymer which is the reaction product of a mixture comprising a fluorocarbon thermoplastic random copolymer, a curing agent having a bisphenol residue, a particulate filler containing zinc oxide, and an aminosiloxane, the cured fluorocarbon thermoplastic 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,
• x+y+z equals 100 mole percent.
