Abstract
A charging roller comprising an electroconductive mandrel and an electroconductive layer as a surface layer, the electroconductive layer including a matrix containing a cross-linked product of a first rubber and domains dispersed in the matrix, each of the domains containing a cross-linked product of a second rubber and an electroconductive particle, the domains each having a volume resistivity lower than a volume resistivity of the matrix, and when sampling a cubic sample of the electroconductive layer having a side of 20.0 μm from a region from an outer surface of the electroconductive layer to a depth of 20.0 μm, 50 number % or more of all the domains in the cubic sample satisfy a specific condition.
