Belt whose εbreak/εmax ratio is within a predetermined range and image forming apparatus having such belt
A belt extends a plurality of rollers, and bears thereon an image formed by an image forming device or a transfer material onto which the image is transferred. The belt satisfies the following relationship: 1.5≦εbreak/εmax≦10, wherein εmax represents the strain at the time of applying to the belt a maximum stress value obtained from a stress-strain curve measured in accordance with JIS K7161, and εbreak represents the strain at a breaking point of the belt.
