Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure relates to an image forming component. The component may include a urethane body, comprising polydiene containing a residual double bond available for oxidation, and including a surface, wherein said double bond is oxidized. The component may also include a first conductive additive including an alkali metal salt, wherein the first conductive additive catalyzes the oxidation of the polydiene and a second conductive additive including an inert conductive additive that does not catalyze the polydiene oxidation, wherein the image forming component exhibits a surface resistivity in the range of 1.0×109 to 1.0×1012 ohm-cm, when characterized at 15.6° C. and 20% RH.
