摘要:
An electrophotographic imaging member containing a supporting substrate having an electrically conductive surface comprising charge injecting material, a charge blocking layer including a water insoluble high molecular weight unmodified hydroxy methacrylate polymer and at least one photoconductive layer, the charge blocking layer having a surface resistivity greater than about 10.sup.10 ohm/sq. This imaging member may be employed in an electrostatographic imaging process.
摘要:
An electrophotographic imaging member including a supporting substrate, an electrically conductive layer including at least a partially crosslinked polymer having a backbone derived from an alkyl acrylamidoglycolate alkyl ether, a charge blocking layer including a polymer having a backbone also derived from an alkyl acrylamidoglycolate alkyl ether and at least one photoconductive layer. Preferably, the backbone derived from an alkyl acrylamidoglycolate alkyl ether is a copolymer of methyl acrylamidoglycolate methyl ether and a vinyl hydroxy ester or vinyl hydroxy amide. This imaging member may be prepared by a coating process and employed in an electrostatographic imaging process.
摘要:
An ionographic imaging member has a conductive layer overcoated by a charge accepting layer. Overcoating layers of acrylate, polycarbonate, polyester, polyurethane, acrylic homopolymer or copolymer and the like are provided. Blocking layers may be provided for preventing charge injection and reducing surface charge decay and bulk charge trapping. The charge accepting layer may be doped with a charge clocking material for preventing charge injection. The overcoating and blocking layers may be one and the same.
摘要:
A protective overcoating layer for an electrophotographic imaging device prevents crystallization and leaching of hole transport compounds in a charge transport layer of the imaging device. The overcoat also prevents solvent and ink contact/bending stress charge transport layer cracking. The overcoating layer contains a polyester homopolymer which contains a hole transporting compound and an aliphatic diol in the polymer chain backbone. The homopolymer can be either a meta or para hole transport compound ester linkage polyester homopolymer.
