Provided herein is a topcoat composition comprising at least one fluorosilicone, a hydride-functional crosslinking agent, an infrared-absorbing filler, and at least one dispersant that is non-reactive with the hydride-functional crosslinking agent, by weight based on a total weight of the topcoat composition, wherein the topcoat composition has a degree of crosslinking between about 10 micrograms/hour/milligrams to about 20 micrograms/hour/milligrams. Further provided herein are methods of making the topcoat composition, as well as an imaging blanket and methods of reducing coating defects on a media coated using the imaging member.

Topcoat composition of imaging blanket with improved properties

A stabilizer disc for a liquid that reduces or prevents the formation of a foam on an upper surface of the liquid. The stabilizer disc has a width and a height, wherein the width is greater than the height. The stabilizer disc further has a surface roughness within a disclosed range of surface roughness (i.e., surface finish) values. Further, a plurality of stabilizer discs may be used to cover a disclosed percentage of a surface area of the fluid. A method for reducing the formation of a foam on the liquid within a container during transport and/or storage is also described.

Fluid stabilizer disc

An imaging member with a unique overcoat composition adapted for forming protective, scratch-resistant overcoats is disclosed. The overcoat composition comprises a binder component that includes particular proportions of a acrylated polyol and propylene glycol. The overcoat composition also comprises a transport agent and a crosslinking agent.

Imaging member

An electrophotographic imaging member includes a substrate, a charge generating layer, a charge transport layer, and an overcoating layer, the overcoating layer including a cured polyester polyol or cured acrylated polyol film forming resin and a charge transport material.
