Abstract

A high-quality developing member which excels in filming resistance and excels in leak resistance despite high electroconductivity is provided. The developing member includes an electroconductive substrate, an elastic layer formed on the substrate, and a surface layer which covers a surface of the elastic layer. The surface layer includes a first resin which has, between two adjacent urethane linkages, a structure represented by the structural formula (1) and one or both of structures selected from the group consisting of a structure represented by the structural formula (2) and a structure represented by the structural formula (3), a second resin which has a structure represented by the structural formula (4) and one or both of structures selected from the group consisting of a structure represented by the structural formula (5) and a structure represented by the structural formula (6), and an electronically conductive filler.
