A fixing member for use in a fixing assembly of an image-forming apparatus
of an electrophotographic or electrostatic recording system has a
conductive layer and a releasing layer formed on the conductive layer. In
the releasing layer, any one or both of medium-resistance particles and
medium-resistance whiskers are dispersed, and the releasing layer has a
surface resistivity of 1.0.times.10.sup.8 .OMEGA. or below and a volume
resistivity of 1.0.times.10.sup.8 .OMEGA.cm or above. The fixing assembly
having such a fixing member may be provided in an image-forming apparatus
having the fixing assembly, and the fixing member has a superior
anti-offset properties and proofness to smeared image trailing edges.
