Conductive roller and manufacturing method thereof
First Claim
1. A conductive roller comprising a shaft, at least one elastic layer formed on the outer periphery of the shaft and a surface layer formed on the outer peripheral surface of the elastic layer, whereinthe elastic layer is formed by using a coating for elastic layers containing a liquid absorbing agent, and the surface layer is formed by using a coating for surface layers,wherein both of the coating for elastic layers and the coating for surface layers contain a water-based coating which is an emulsion or dispersion, andthe water-based coating used in the elastic layer is a water-based acrylic resin having acrylonitrile and n-butyl acrylate as essential components and optionally having other monomers, and the monomer ratio of n-butyl acrylate and acrylonitrile is in a range of 1 to 25:
- 99 to 75 based on molar ratio.

Abstract
A conductive roller in which dripping of a water-based coating during the manufacture thereof is restrained, and a manufacturing method thereof. The conductive roller includes a shaft, at least one elastic layer formed on the outer periphery of the shaft and a surface layer formed on the outer peripheral surface of the elastic layer. The elastic layer is formed by using a coating for elastic layers containing a liquid absorbing agent, and the surface layer is formed by using a coating for surface layers. The method comprises forming an elastic layer by applying a coating for elastic layers containing a liquid absorbing agent on the outer periphery of the shaft and drying to form the elastic layer; and forming a surface layer by, after forming the elastic layer, applying a coating for surface layers on the formed elastic layer and drying to form the surface layer.
