Abstract:
A method for producing an electrophotographic photosensitive member includes an electrically conductive substrate and a photosensitive layer. The method includes applying an application liquid for photosensitive layer formation containing a solvent, a binder resin, and a hole transport material directly or indirectly onto the electrically conductive substrate, and removing a portion of the solvent, to form the photosensitive layer. The solvent contains a first solvent that is an alcohol having a carbon number of at least 1 and no greater than 3, and a second solvent other than the first solvent. The binder resin includes a polyarylate resin that is a polymerization product of monomers including a first monomer represented by general formula (1) and a second monomer represented by general formula (2),
Abstract:
A polyarylate resin includes at least one type of repeating unit represented by a general formula (1), at least one type of repeating unit represented by a general formula (2), and a terminal group represented by a general formula (3). R1, R2, R3, and R4 each represent, independently of one another, a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. R5 and R6 each represent, independently of each other, a hydrogen atom or a C1-4 alkyl group. R5 and R6 may bond together to represent a C5-7 cycloalkylidene group. X1 represents a divalent group represented by a chemical formula (2A), (2B), (2C), or (2D) with the proviso that when only one type of repeating unit represented by the general formula (2) is included, X1 does not represent a divalent group represented by the chemical formula (2D). Rf represents a chain aliphatic group having at least one fluoro group.
Abstract:
A polyarylate resin is represented by general formula (1) shown below. In general formula (1), R1 and R2 each represent, independently of one another, a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. r and s each represent an integer of at least 0 and no greater than 49. t and u each represent an integer of at least 1 and no greater than 50. r+s+t+u=100. r+t=s+u. X and Y each represent, independently of one another, a divalent group represented by chemical formula (1-1), chemical formula (1-2), chemical formula (1-3), or chemical formula (1-4). X and Y are different from one another.
Abstract:
A triphenylamine derivative is represented by General Formula (1). In General Formula (1), OR1 represents an alkoxy group having 2 to 8 carbon atoms. R2 to R6 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms. Ar1 and Ar2 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, an aryl group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms and optionally substituted with an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, an aryl group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms and optionally substituted with an alkoxy group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, or a 3- to 10-membered heterocyclic group. Note that the case where Ar1 and Ar2 are both a hydrogen atom is excluded.
