Further, in the case of a low resilience material such as millable silicone or foamed urethane, the tear strength is inferior and the wear resistance is not always sufficient. In particular, image quality may be deteriorated due to generation of abrasion powder. Furthermore, in the case of a urethane material, carcinogenicity is pointed out to the amine contained in the curing agent used, and it is desirable to avoid use for reducing the environmental load.

- the conductive endless belt of the present invention uses millable urethane rubber to form guide ribs with excellent flexibility, wear resistance, and low friction coefficient. Therefore, it has good running stability, durability and running quietness.
- the guide rib 32 of a conductive endless belt in which a guide rib 32 protrudes along the circumferential direction on one surface side (usually the inner peripheral surface) of an endless belt-shaped belt body 31 is millable. It is formed using urethane rubber.
- millable urethane is a kneading type urethane that can be kneaded with a roll against liquid urethane (casting type) or thermoplastic urethane (injection type). Any of these may be used, but a polyester system is preferably used for applications where wear resistance is important, and a polyether system is preferably used for applications where flexibility is important.
- the vulcanization system may be any of sulfur, peroxide, and isocyanate, but a peroxide vulcanization system is preferably used from the viewpoint of changes in urethane hardness over time and hardness variations.
- Such a millable urethane rubber can be a commercially available product, such as Bayer “Miracene Series”, “Urepan Series”, NOK “Iron Rubber Series”, and the like.
- an inorganic reinforcing material such as calcium carbonate, dexterous clay, silica, mica and an organic reinforcing material such as fine particle silicone powder can be added.
- the impact resilience can be reduced or adjusted. In this case, although not particularly limited, the rebound resilience can be reduced or adjusted more favorably by using carbon black and these reinforcing materials in combination.
- the amount of the reinforcing material added is appropriately set according to the type of the millable urethane rubber and the type of the reinforcing material to be added. Usually, the amount is 5 to 30 parts by mass, particularly 100 parts by mass of the millable urethane rubber. The amount is preferably 10 to 20 parts by mass.

If the hardness is less than 50, the ribs are deformed easily when the belt is running, and the belt is likely to meander. It becomes sufficient, the turning radius becomes large, and it is easy to get on the pulley, and the chatter noise easily occurs due to the frictional force with the pulley.
- the guide rib 32 of the present invention can achieve a low coefficient of friction, but the specific coefficient of friction is not particularly limited. It is preferably 1.4 or less (pressure contact load 400 g, sliding speed 50 mm / sec), particularly 1.3 or less, more preferably 1 or less, with respect to polyacetal resin widely used as a material for traveling pulleys. It is possible to effectively prevent the belt from running up and the generation of wear powder.

It is preferable to prepare such that the elastic modulus is 25 to 50%, particularly 35 to 40%. And in this invention, such low friction coefficient can be easily achieved with the said low rebound resilience by using millable urethane rubber, More specifically, the said inorganic type reinforcing material and organic type reinforcing material The low coefficient of friction can be achieved by adjusting the blending amount and adjusting the blending amount.
