Abstract
A process for providing a layer on a marking member by dissolving a fluoroelastomer; adding and reacting a nano-size zinc oxide and a crosslinking agent, to form a resulting homogeneous fluoroelastomer dispersion, wherein the nano-size zinc oxide has a particle size of from about 1 to about 250 nanometers; and subsequently providing at least one layer of the homogeneous fluoroelastomer dispersion to the marking member.
Claims17
A process for providing a layer on an offset printing member, wherein said offset printing member comprises a phase change ink component for applying a phase change ink in a phase change ink image, and an imaging member for accepting the phase change ink image from the phase change ink component, and transferring the phase change ink image from the imaging member to the print medium, the process comprising:
- a) dissolving a fluoroelastomer;
- b) adding and reacting a nano-size zinc oxide and a crosslinking agent, to form a resulting homogeneous fluoroelastomer dispersion, wherein said nano-size zinc oxide has a particle size of from about 24 to about 71 nanometers;
- and
- c) subsequently providing at least one layer of the homogeneous fluoroelastomer dispersion to said imaging member.
