ABSTRACT:
A conductive fiber having at least one fiber forming material and conductive materials and coated with a polymer which reduces the surface energy of the fiber below an initial surface energy of the fiber is disclosed. The fibers are preferably used in an electrostatic cleaning device which removes residual toner from the surface of an imaging member. The coated conductive fibers significantly improve the detoning efficiency of cleaning devices incorporating the fibers.
