ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PHOTOSENSITIVE MEMBER WITH A SURFACE LAYER CONTAINING POLYMERS OBTAINED BY THE POLYMERIZATION OF COMPOUNDS WITH CHAIN POLYMERIZABLE FUNCTIONAL GROUPS, A MANUFACTURING METHOD OF THE ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PHOTOSENSITIVE MEMBER, A PROCESS CARTRIDGE, AND AN ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC APPARATUS

摘要

PURPOSE: An electrophotographic photosensitive member, a manufacturing method of the electrophotographic photosensitive member, a process cartridge, and an electrophotographic apparatus are provided to ensure stable molecular orientation, thereby reducing remaining electric potential.;CONSTITUTION: An electrophotographic photosensitive member includes a support and a photosensitive layer. The photosensitive layer is formed on the support. The surface of the electrophotographic photosensitive member includes polymers which are possibly obtained by the polymerization of compounds represented by chemical formula 1. In chemical formula 1, Ar1 and Ar2 are phenyl groups, respectively; Ar3 is a substituted or non-substituted phenylene group; M is a group represented by chemical formula M; the substituents of the substituted phenyl group and the substituted phenylene group are methyl groups, ethyl groups, n-propyl groups, methoxy groups, ethoxy groups, or propoxy groups, respectively.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2013
