A crosslinkable charge transport layer material for a photoconductor includes at least one poly(arylene ether alcohol), at least one polyisocyanate crosslinking agent and at least one charge transport material dispersed in a solvent. The crosslinkable charge transport layer material is crosslinked following application of the coating solution to the photoconductor. The photoconductor including such crosslinked charge transport layer exhibits excellent wear resistance so as to have long life, thereby reducing the cost of electrophotographic printing machines employing such photoconductors therein.

摘要:
An electrophotographic imaging member including a supporting substrate; an optional charge blocking layer; an optional adhesive layer; a charge generating layer and at least two charge transport layers, each charge transport layer including a charge transporting polymer (a) including a backbone containing charge transporting moieties in the backbone, the moieties having a chemical structure different from the chemical structure of charge transporting moieties in the charge transport polymer of any charge transport layer lying closer to the charge generating layer, and (b) having a higher ionization potential than the charge transport polymer in any charge transport layer lying closer to the charge generating layer. This imaging member may be employed in an electrophotographic imaging process, particularly in high sensitivity infrared photoreceptors which are compatible with liquid ink development processes.
摘要:
An endless flexible seamed belt with a mechanically and electrically invisible seam, substantially equivalent in performance to a seamless belt, is formed by joining two ends of substrate material, each end of which has a plurality of mutually mating elements in a puzle cut pattern which are in interlocking relationship. After the two ends are joined, an bonding is applied to the seam of the belt. When the belt is to be an electrostatographic imaging member, the electrostatics of the belt become very important. The two ends of a flexible substrate with a conductive coating applied thereto are interlocked and a conductive bonding is applied to the gap between the interlocking surfaces. The undercoating layer can then be applied to the adhered seam in order to smooth the seamed surface for application of the charge generating layer and the charge transfer layer. The undercoating layer may be relatively thicker than current undercoating layers to insure that the seam surface is smooth.
