摘要:
An aromatic silicon-containing compound has the formula: Ar—[X-L-SiRn(OR′)3-n]m where Ar represents an aromatic group, X represents a divalent or trivalent group; L represents a divalent linking group; R represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group or an aryl group; R′ represents an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms; n is an integer of from 0 to 2; and m is an integer of from 1 to 5. The aromatic silicon-containing compound can be used in electrophotographic photoreceptors, particularly in outmost protective layers of such electrophotographic photoreceptors.
摘要:
Provided are a silane-phenol compound, a crosslinked siloxane outmost protective layer thereof, and an electrophotographic imaging member such as photoreceptor. The silane-phenol compound comprises (i) a phenol group and (ii) a silane group selected from the group consisting of alkoxysilyl, arylalkoxysilyl, aryloxysilyl, alkylaryloxysilyl, and combination thereof. The crosslinked siloxane outmost protective layer comprises the product of hydrolysis and condensation of a silanized hole transport compound and the silane-phenol compound. The crosslinked protective outmost layer may be used to manufacture an electrophotographic imaging member such as photoreceptor with improved properties such as image quality and cleanability, etc.
摘要:
A photoconductive imaging member comprised of a substrate, a photogenerating layer, and thereover a charge transport layer comprised of a charge transport component or components, a polymer binder and metal oxide particles, wherein said metal oxide particles contain or are attached with or to a silane or a siloxane, or alternatively a polytetrafluoroethylene.
摘要:
A process of treating metal oxide nanoparticles that includes mixing metal oxide nanoparticles, a solvent, and a surface treatment agent that is preferably a silane or siloxane is described. The treated metal oxide nanoparticles are rendered hydrophobic by the surface treatment agent being surface attached thereto, and are preferably dispersed in a hydrophobic aromatic polymer binder of a charge transport layer of a photoreceptor, whereby π—π interactions can be formed between the organic moieties on the surface of the nanoparticles and the aromatic components of the binder polymer to achieve a stable dispersion of the nanoparticles in the polymer that is substantially free of large sized agglomerations.
摘要:
A crosslinked siloxane composite overcoat for electrophotographic photoreceptors, containing at least one siloxane-containing compound, a resin and metal oxide particles; photoreceptors containing the crosslinked siloxane composite overcoat; and image process cartridge and image forming apparatuses containing photoreceptors containing the crosslinked siloxane composite overcoat.
