Abstract

An electroconductive roller working stably in all environmental conditions without any large-capacity power supply and which is suitable for use in a system of which the power source is controlled for a constant current. The electroconductive roller has a resistance of 1.times.10.sup.3 to 1.times.10.sup.12 .OMEGA. when applied with a voltage of 500 V at a temperature of 25.degree. C. and relative humidity of 50% and has K.sub.HH .ltoreq.K.sub.NN .ltoreq.K.sub.LL, where K is a ratio of roller resistance at an application of 500 V to roller resistance at an application of 2,000 V, K.sub.HH is the ratio K at ambient conditions of 35.degree. C. and 85% relative humidity, K.sub.NN is the ratio K at ambient conditions of 25.degree. C. and 50% relative humidity, and K.sub.LL is the ratio K at ambient conditions of 10.degree. C. and 15% relative humidity.
