摘要:
When an abutting pressure of the cleaning blade on a photoreceptor is increased, a chattering occurs due to the so-called a stick-slip phenomenon that the blade repeatedly undergoes sticking to the outermost surface of the photoreceptor and slipping thereon. As a result, a possibility of noise generation becomes higher and there is a possibility that toner particles might pass through during slipping to cause a cleaning failure, resulting in a streaky image defect. There is also a higher possibility that the so-called a filming phenomenon might occur, in which a component of the toner sticks to the photoreceptor surface by the action of the blade pressure and becomes difficult to remove, so as to lead to persistent image defects. Furthermore, since the photoreceptor is rotated with toners in the state of being strongly pressed thereagainst, the image defects are apt to be caused due to peripheral-direction scratches. An electrophotographic photoreceptor is provided in which the outermost layer of the photoreceptor contains a specific charge-transporting material and a specific binder resin.
