3, middle layer
As shown in Figure 1, mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10 is characterised in that, is provided with the middle layer 16 of containing binding resin and specific titanium oxide microparticle between matrix 12 and photographic layer 14.
Below being divided into titanium oxide microparticle, binding resin etc. describes middle layer 16.
(1) titanium oxide microparticle
Middle layer 16 is characterised in that, contains titanium oxide microparticle.
Its reason is that titanium oxide microparticle has the electrical characteristics of regulation, therefore the electric conductivity in middle layer 16 can be adjusted to the scope of regulation.
Thus, can to since the balance that is provided with between the reduction of the raising of middle layer 16 resistance to pressures that produce, photographic layer 14 and charge migration regulate.
And the kind of titanium oxide microparticle can be used any one in crystalline, the noncrystalline matter.
In addition, when titanium dioxide was crystalline, its crystal formation can use any one in Detitanium-ore-type, rutile-type and the brookite type, but especially preferably used rutile-type.
(1)-1 number average primary particle size
The number average primary particle size of titanium oxide microparticle is in the scope of 5~30nm.
Its reason is, the number average primary particle size by making titanium oxide microparticle can improve the dispersiveness of the titanium oxide microparticle in the middle layer 16 in this scope.
That is,, perhaps be difficult to titanium oxide microparticle is implemented the specific surface treatment of aftermentioned equably if the number average primary particle size of titanium oxide microparticle less than 5nm, then easily excessively condenses between the titanium oxide microparticle.On the other hand,, then be difficult to be evenly dispersed in the middle layer 16, might become the reason of the photographic fog under the hot and humid environment if the number average primary particle size of titanium oxide microparticle surpasses 30nm.
Therefore, the number average primary particle size of the titanium oxide microparticle that middle layer 16 is contained is more preferably in the scope of 7~25nm, further preferably in the scope of 10~20nm.
In addition, titanium oxide microparticle also can condense within the limits prescribed, and the number average aggregate particle size of this moment is preferably in the scope of 30~100nm, more preferably in the scope of 30~50nm.
In addition, the number average primary particle size of titanium oxide microparticle can be measured by combination electron micrograph and image processing apparatus.
And the number average primary particle size of titanium oxide microparticle of the present invention refers to, and has implemented the number average primary particle size of the titanium oxide microparticle after the aftermentioned surface treatment.
(1)-2 surface treatment
(surface treatment of carrying out with aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide)
Titanium oxide microparticle is implemented surface treatment with aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide.
Its reason is, by using aluminium oxide (Al 2O 3), silicon dioxide (SiO 2) implement surface treatment, can improve the basic dispersiveness of the titanium oxide microparticle in the middle layer 16.
In addition, after titanium oxide microparticle is implemented surface treatment with aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide, implement surface treatment, can be easily the part by weight of the organo-silicon compound on titanium oxide microparticle surface be adjusted to value in the specialized range with the aftermentioned organo-silicon compound.
In addition, as the surface treatment of titanium oxide microparticle being carried out with aluminium oxide, for example can carry out in order to following method.
At first, titanium oxide microparticle is dispersed in the aqueous solution of aluminium salt such as aluminum chloride, obtains dispersion liquid.Then, add alkaline matters such as NaOH in the dispersion liquid that obtains, after aluminium hydroxide was separated out on the surface of titanium oxide microparticle, the temperature about calcination to 500 ℃ can be carried out surface treatment with aluminium oxide thus.
In addition, as the surface treatment of titanium oxide microparticle being carried out with silicon dioxide, for example can carry out in order to following method.
At first, titanium oxide microparticle is added in the water with alkaline matters such as NaOH, obtain the water paste of alkalescence.Then, in the water paste that obtains, add silicasol or silicate base aqueous solution, make the pH of water paste remain on alkalescence, can obtain being formed with the titanium oxide microparticle of silicon dioxide overlay film thus on the surface.Then, the titanium oxide microparticle that obtains is implemented processing such as washing, drying, can carry out surface treatment with silicon dioxide thus.
In addition, with respect to the titanium oxide microparticle of 100 weight portions, the addition of preferred aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide amounts in the scope of 0.1~50 weight portion.
Its reason is, if the total addition of aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide then might be difficult to fully improve the basic dispersiveness of titanium oxide microparticle less than 0.1 weight portion.On the other hand,, then might be difficult to titanium oxide microparticle is implemented surface treatment equably if the total addition of aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide surpasses 50 weight portions, or to the influence of the electric conductivity in middle layer excessive, its adjusting difficulty that becomes that becomes.
Therefore, with respect to the titanium oxide microparticle of 100 weight portions, the total addition of aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide is more preferably in the scope of 1~30 weight portion, further preferably in the scope of 5~20 weight portions.
(surface treatment of carrying out with organo-silicon compound)
Titanium oxide microparticle and then is implemented surface treatment with organo-silicon compound except above-mentioned aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide, and the part by weight X (weight %) of the organo-silicon compound on titanium oxide microparticle surface satisfies following relational expression (1).
1 (weight %)≤X<4 (weight %) (1)
Its reason is, by implementing surface treatment with organo-silicon compound, can control the absorptive while of titanium oxide microparticle, can further improve dispersiveness.
Further, the part by weight of the organo-silicon compound by making the titanium oxide microparticle surface can be with the dispersiveness of the titanium oxide microparticle in the middle layer and the balance adjustment between the electric conductivity to good state in above-mentioned scope.
Its result can improve the resistance to pressure of photographic layer and the balance between the charge migration, therefore can suppress the generation of stain effectively under hot and humid environment, even also can keep excellent light sensitivity characteristic on the other hand effectively under the low temperature and low humidity environment.
That is, if the part by weight of organo-silicon compound is less than 1 weight %, then the dispersiveness of the titanium oxide microparticle in the middle layer reduces and excessively cohesion easily.At this moment, excessive cohesion partly forms the path of electric charge, produces small electric leakage, easily becomes the reason that the stain under hot and humid environment produces.On the other hand, if the part by weight of organo-silicon compound is that then the electric conductivity in middle layer excessively reduces more than the 4 weight %, thereby the residual charge in the photographic layer might be difficult to be discharged into the matrix side.Its result, the light sensitivity characteristic under the low temperature and low humidity environment easily excessively reduces.
Therefore, the part by weight X (weight %) of the organo-silicon compound on titanium oxide microparticle surface is more preferably in the scope of 1~3.5 weight %, further preferably in the scope of 1.5~3 weight %.
In addition, preferably use the fluorescent X-ray determinator, and measure the part by weight X (weight %) of the organo-silicon compound on titanium oxide microparticle surface as described below.
That is, at first use the fluorescent X-ray determinator, the lubber-line of the mutual relationship of the weight of making expression organo-silicon compound and the peak intensity of silicon atom.
Then, use the fluorescent X-ray determinator, to the peak intensity P1 of the silicon atom of implementing the titanium oxide microparticle surface before the surface treatment with organo-silicon compound, measure with the peak intensity P2 of the silicon atom of having implemented the titanium oxide microparticle surface after the surface treatment with organo-silicon compound.
Then, calculate peak intensity Pm=P2-P1 from the silicon atom of organo-silicon compound.
Then, by using the lubber-line of making in advance, calculate the weight (M) of having implemented the organo-silicon compound on surface treatment titanium oxide microparticle surface afterwards with organo-silicon compound.
At last, obtain the weight (M) of the organo-silicon compound on titanium oxide microparticle surface with respect to the ratio (M/T=X) (weight %) of implementing the weight (T) of surface treatment titanium oxide microparticle before with organo-silicon compound.
Then, use Fig. 2, to the part by weight of the organo-silicon compound on titanium oxide microparticle surface, measuring the light sensitivity characteristic (bright potential difference (PD)) that obtains under the low temperature and low humidity environment, and under hot and humid environment, carrying out the relation that the stain of image when forming produce number and describe with the mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor that uses the middle layer to contain titanium oxide microparticle.
That is, Fig. 2 represents that transverse axis adopts the part by weight X (weight %) of the hydrogenated methyl polysiloxane (organo-silicon compound a kind of) on titanium oxide microparticle surface, and the left longitudinal axis adopts the family curve A of the bright potential difference (PD) (V) under the low temperature and low humidity environment.
In addition, represent that the right longitudinal axis adopts the family curve B of the stain generation number (individual/as to open) under the hot and humid environment.
And the value that bright potential difference (PD) refers to the bright current potential when being provided with the middle layer deducts the value that the value of the bright current potential when not being provided with the middle layer obtains.In addition, the low more then light sensitivity of the value of bright potential difference (PD) characteristic is excellent more.
In addition, the number average primary particle size of the titanium oxide microparticle that uses all is 10nm, and use is carried out with the hydrogenated methyl polysiloxane implementing identical surface-treated titanium oxide microparticle with aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide before the surface treatment.
In addition, with respect to binding resin 100 weight portions in middle layer, contain the titanium oxide microparticle of 300 weight portions.
In addition, bright current potential, stain are produced concrete the records in an embodiment such as condition determination of number.
At first, by family curve A as can be known, the bright potential difference (PD) under the low temperature and low humidity environment is along with the increase of the part by weight (being designated hereinafter simply as X) of hydrogenated methyl polysiloxane, and the temporary transient back of reducing increases.
More particularly, the value along with X increases to 1 weight % from 0 weight % as can be known, and bright potential difference (PD) sharply is reduced to volt more than 20 from volt more than 60, and the light sensitivity characteristic significantly improves.On the other hand, the value of X is when surpassing the scope of 1 weight %, and along with the increase of the value of X, the value of bright potential difference (PD) continues increase more lentamente, but, then the value of bright potential difference (PD) can be remained in the scope of allowing in the practicality about 40V if the value of X is the scope less than 4 weight %.
Then, by family curve B as can be known, the stain under the hot and humid environment produces number to be reduced along with the increase of X.
More particularly, the value along with X increases to 1 weight % from 0 weight % as can be known, stain produce number from nearly 90/open sharply be reduced to more than 40/open, after this continue minimizing lentamente.
Therefore, if X is the above scope of 1 weight %, then stain can be produced number and remain in the scope of allowing in more than 40/the following practicality.
As known from the above, combined characteristic A and B judge, then the value by making X is more than 1 weight % and in the scope less than 4 weight %, can realize the maintenance of bright current potential of the excellence under the low temperature and low humidity environment and this opposite on the whole purpose of inhibition that the stain under the hot and humid environment produces effectively.
In addition, the surface treatment of carrying out with organo-silicon compound is preferably implemented on the surface-treated layer that carries out with aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide.
Its reason is, by carrying out like this, can give more suitable electric conductivity more equably to the middle layer.
That is, by carrying out like this, the part by weight that can bring into play to greatest extent as the organo-silicon compound on above-mentioned titanium oxide microparticle surface shown in Figure 2 is limited to the effect that obtains in the specialized range.
In addition, as the preferred organo-silicon compound that use among the present invention, can enumerate alkyl silane cpd, alkoxysilane compound containing trialkylsilyl group in molecular structure, contain vinyl silane compound, contain the hydrosulphonyl silane compound, contain amino silane compounds or their condensed polymer polysiloxane compound.
More particularly, be preferably silicone compounds such as hydrogenated methyl polysiloxane, dimethyl polysiloxane, be preferably the hydrogenated methyl polysiloxane especially.
And with respect to implemented surface-treated titanium oxide microparticle 100 weight portions with aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide, the addition of organo-silicon compound is preferably more than 1 weight portion and in the scope less than 4 weight portions.
Its reason is, if the addition of organo-silicon compound is the value less than 1 weight portion, then is difficult to obtain the treatment effect of organo-silicon compound, and dispersiveness might can not get improving.On the other hand, if the addition of organo-silicon compound is more than 4 weight portions, then the amount of coating that obtains with organo-silicon compound becomes excessive, might be difficult to bring into play effectively the electrical characteristics of titanium dioxide.
Therefore, with respect to implemented surface-treated titanium oxide microparticle 100 weight portions with aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide, the addition of organo-silicon compound is more preferably in the scope of 1.2~3.5 weight portions, further preferably in the scope of 1.5~3 weight portions.
(1)-3 content
With respect to the binding resin in the middle layer of 100 weight portions, the content of titanium oxide microparticle is preferably in the scope of 120~450 weight portions.
Its reason is, the content by making titanium oxide microparticle can be given the more electric conductivity of proper range more equably to the middle layer in this scope.
That is, with respect to the binding resin in the middle layer of 100 weight portions, if the content of titanium oxide microparticle is less than 120 weight portions, then the electric conductivity in middle layer becomes too small, and the residual charge in the photographic layer might be difficult to be discharged into the matrix side.On the other hand, with respect to the binding resin in the middle layer of 100 weight portions, if the content of titanium oxide microparticle surpasses 450 weight portions, then the electric conductivity in middle layer becomes excessive, or titanium oxide microparticle might easily produce stain easily in the middle layer cohesion.
Therefore, with respect to the binding resin in the middle layer of 100 weight portions, the content of titanium oxide microparticle is more preferably in the scope of 130~400 weight portions, and is further preferred in the scope of 150~350 weight portions.
And the addition of titanium oxide microparticle refers to the addition of having implemented surface treatment titanium oxide microparticle afterwards.
In addition, and during with titanium oxide microparticle among the present invention and titanium oxide microparticle in addition, the addition of titanium oxide microparticle refers to the total of their addition.
(2) adjuvant
Prevent to produce interference fringe in order to produce light scattering, improve dispersiveness etc., preferably in the middle layer, add the various adjuvants (organic micropowder end or inorganic micro powder end) different with charge-transporting pigment.
Particularly, Chinese whites such as zinc paste, zinc sulphide, white lead, lithopone, aluminium oxide, lime carbonate, barium sulphate etc. be as the inorganic pigment of extender pigment, or fluororesin particle, benzoguanamine resin particle, styrene resin particle etc. are preferred additives.
In addition, during adjuvants such as interpolation micropowder, its particle diameter is preferably in the scope of 0.01~3 μ m.Its reason is, if the concavo-convex increase in the excessive then middle layer of particle diameter of adjuvant, or produce electric uneven part, and then might easily produce the image quality defective.On the other hand, if the particle diameter of adjuvant is too small, then might can not get sufficient light scattering effect.
And, when adding adjuvant such as micropowder, its addition with respect to the solid constituent in middle layer in weight ratio, preferably at 1~70 weight %, more preferably in the scope of 5~60 weight %.
(3) binding resin
(3)-a kind
As the kind of binding resin, preferred use for example is selected from least a resin in polyamide, polyvinyl alcohol resin, polyvinyl butyral resin, vinyl-formal resin, vinyl acetate resin, phenoxy resin, vibrin, the acryl resin.
Wherein, especially preferably use polyamide.
Its reason is that polyamide can improve the dispersiveness of the titanium oxide microparticle in the middle layer, and can improve the adaptation of matrix and photographic layer effectively.
At this, when using polyamide, aspect the dissolubility solvent is excellent, consider as binding resin, preferably use pure soluble polyamide.As object lesson, the preferred resin that is called as multipolymer nylon that copolymerization such as nylon 6, nylon 66, NYLON610, nylon 11, nylon 12 are obtained that uses perhaps carries out the resin that is called as modification of nylon that chemical modification obtains as N-alkoxy methyl modification of nylon, N-alkoxyethyl modification of nylon etc. to nylon.

And, polyvinyl butyral resin can obtain by polyvinyl alcohol resin and butyraldehyde are reacted, vinyl-formal resin can obtain by polyvinyl alcohol resin and formaldehyde are reacted, these resins particularly are the intermiscibility excellence of resin with phenolic aldehyde, be that reactivity, the cementability of resin is also excellent with phenolic aldehyde simultaneously, institute thinks preferred resin.
(3)-2 number-average molecular weight
The number-average molecular weight of binding resin is preferably 1,000~60, in 000 the scope.
Its reason is, if the mean molecular weight of binding resin is less than 1,000, the viscosity of the coating fluid in the time of then might forming the middle layer significantly reduces, and is difficult to obtain uniform thickness, and perhaps mechanicalness intensity, film forming or cementability significantly reduce.On the other hand, if the mean molecular weight of binding resin surpasses 60,000, the viscosity of the coating fluid when then forming the middle layer significantly increases, and might be difficult to control the thickness in middle layer, or charge migration reduces significantly.
Therefore, the mean molecular weight of binding resin is more preferably 2,000~40, in 000 the scope, further preferably 5,000~20, in 000 the scope.
And, the mean molecular weight of binding resin can use gel permeation chromatography (GPC:GelPermeation Chromatography), measure with the molecular weight form of polystyrene conversion, when perhaps binding resin is the condensation resinoid, can also be by its condensation degree by calculating.
(4) thickness
The thickness in middle layer is preferably in the scope of 0.1~50 μ m.
Its reason is, the thickness by making the middle layer can make the electric conductivity in middle layer more even, be more suitable scope in this scope.
That is, if the thickness in middle layer then might be difficult to fully improve the resistance to pressure of photographic layer less than 0.1 μ m.On the other hand, if the thickness in middle layer surpasses 50 μ m, then the charge migration in the photographic layer might excessively reduce.
Therefore, the thickness in middle layer is more preferably in the scope of 0.5~40 μ m, further preferably in the scope of 1~30 μ m.
4, photographic layer

(B) in differential scanning calorimetric analysis, except the peak that the gasification along with planar water produces, in 270~400 ℃ scope, has a peak.
Its reason is that the titanyl phthalocyanine crystallization by use has this specific character even under the low temperature and low humidity environment, also can more effectively keep excellent light sensitivity characteristic.
That is, the titanyl phthalocyanine crystallization has characteristic (A), thereby can significantly improve its crystallization-stable, electric charge generating ability and dispersiveness.
In addition, the titanyl phthalocyanine crystallization has characteristic (B), thereby can further improve its crystallization-stable, electric charge generating ability and dispersiveness.
And, for a peak the peak that produces except gasification, that in 270~400 ℃ scope, occur, more preferably in 280~390 ℃ scope, occur along with planar water, further preferably in 290~380 ℃ scope, occur.

And the number average primary particle size of the titanium oxide microparticle that use this moment all is 10nm, and use is carried out with the hydrogenated methyl polysiloxane implementing identical surface-treated titanium oxide microparticle with aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide before the surface treatment.
In addition,, contain the titanium oxide microparticle of 300 weight portions,, contain the charge generating of 3 weight portions with respect to the binding resin of the photographic layer of 100 weight portions with respect to the binding resin in the middle layer of 100 weight portions.
In addition, in an embodiment to concrete records such as the condition determinations of bright current potential.
At first, by family curve A and B as can be known, with the kind of charge generating irrespectively, the value of bright current potential is along with the value of X increases, the temporary transient back of reducing increases.
And as can be known, be more than the 1 weight % and in the scope less than 4 weight % in the value of X, the value that can make bright current potential is low value (as mentioned above, the low more then light sensitivity of the value of bright current potential characteristic is excellent more).
But, in family curve A and B, the level difference of the value of whole bright current potential separately.
More particularly, in family curve A, when the value of X is 0 weight %, when that is to say the surface treatment that titanium oxide microparticle is not carried out carrying out with organo-silicon compound, the value of bright current potential is that 130V is many.
On the other hand, in family curve B, even when one of the value of X is the value of 3.5 weight %, bright current potential when being minimum, the value of bright current potential also is nearly 135V.
Therefore, by family curve A and B as can be known, have characteristic (A) and titanyl phthalocyanine crystallization (B) as charge generating,, also can improve the light sensitivity characteristic of Electrophtography photosensor effectively even under the low temperature and low humidity environment by use.
And as can be known, use between situation with characteristic (A) and titanyl phthalocyanine crystallization (B) and the situation of the using the general titanyl phthalocyanine crystallization that does not have these characteristics, the light sensitivity characteristic under the low temperature and low humidity environment produces significant difference (with reference to embodiment).

[second embodiment]
As shown in Figure 4, second embodiment of the present invention is an image processing system 100, when it has the mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10 of Fig. 1 of first embodiment, around mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10, having disposed charged elements 112, exposing unit 113, developing cell 114, transfer printing unit 115, cleaning unit 117 and having removed electric unit 102.
Below, omitted the content of explanation in the first embodiment, be the center with the part that is different from first embodiment record content, second embodiment is described.
Use Fig. 4 that the basic comprising and the work of image processing system 100 are described.
At first, the mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10 that makes image processing system 100 makes its surface charged to regulation current potential 119 (positive polarity) by charged elements 112 after the direction shown in the arrow A is rotated with predetermined process speed (peripheral speed).And, in Fig. 4, use charged roller as charged elements 112.
Then, by exposing unit 113 according to the light of image information modulation by irradiations such as catoptrons, exposed in the surface of mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10.By this exposure, form electrostatic latent image on the surface of mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10.
Then, based on this electrostatic latent image, carry out image development by developing cell 114.The inside of this developing cell 114 accommodates toner, the electrostatic latent image on the corresponding mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor of this toner 10 surfaces and adhering to, thus form toner image.
In addition, recording chart 120 is transported to mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10 bottoms along the transfer printing conveying channel of regulation.At this moment, by between mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10 and transfer printing unit 115, applying the transfer bias 122 of regulation, can be on recording chart 120 the transfer printing toner image.
Then, transfer printing has the recording chart 120 of toner image to pass through separative element (not shown) after mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10 surface isolation, is transported to fuser (not shown) by moving belt.Then, recording chart 120 carries out heating and pressurizing by this fuser to be handled, and toner image outputs to the outside of image processing system 100 by outlet roller behind the surface.
On the other hand, mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10 former states ground behind the transfer printing toner image continues rotation, and the residual toner (attachment) that is not transferred to recording chart 120 during transfer printing is removed by the surface of cleaning unit 117 from mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10.In addition, the electric charge remaining on the surface of mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor 10 removed by removing electric unit 102, for forming in next image.
In image processing system of the present invention, to use as described in first embodiment, the mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor of specific titanium dioxide is contained in the middle layer.
Therefore, under hot and humid environment, can suppress the generation of stain effectively, on the other hand, even under the low temperature and low humidity environment, also can keep excellent light sensitivity characteristic effectively.
In addition, when constituting image processing system of the present invention, preferred charged elements 112 is the charged elements of contact.
Its reason is, compares with contactless charged elements, can not influenced by temperature and humidity and stably charged.
That is, contactless charged elements is owing to discharge and make photoreceptor charged by air, might be subjected to the influence of the temperature of air or humidity and chargedly becomes unstable.On the other hand, the charged elements of contact can not produce this problem, can stably make photoreceptor charged.Further, the charged elements of contact electrification mode is compared with contactless charged elements, and whole formation is simple, and the generation of oxidizing gas such as ozone is also few, and environmental characteristics is also excellent.
In addition, charged elements is preferably the charged elements that the surface charging that makes mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor becomes the anodal sexual type of positive polarity.
Its reason is, the charged elements of anodal sexual type is compared with the charged elements of negative pole sexual type, the oxidative degradation that can suppress the photographic layer that oxidizing gas such as ozone cause, therefore can stably keep the resistance to pressure of photographic layer, even under hot and humid environment, also can more effectively suppress the generation of stain.
In addition, cleaning unit 117 is preferably the cleaning unit that has adopted the roller cleaning system that the surface of mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor is ground by roller member.
Its reason is, this cleaning unit can grind the part of the oxidative degradation on photographic layer surface, the part that residual toner causes film forming and remove, thereby keeps the resistance to pressure of photographic layer effectively.
On the other hand, if further carry out the grinding of photographic layer, then might easily reduce the resistance to pressure of photographic layer on the contrary, but among the present invention, because the middle layer that mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor has regulation, can address this is that,, also can suppress the generation of stain effectively even under hot and humid environment.
In addition, the peripheral speed of preferred single layer type Electrophtography photosensor (processing speed) is more than the 100mm/s.
Its reason is, by the peripheral speed that makes mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor is this scope, though easily produce the oxidative degradation on photographic layer surface, easily produce the film forming that the residual toner causes, the resistance to pressure of photographic layer easily reduces, but among the present invention, because the middle layer that mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor has regulation, even under hot and humid environment, also can suppress the generation of stain effectively.
In addition, even under the low temperature and low humidity environment, also can bring into play can be corresponding to the light sensitivity characteristic of this high-speed excellence.
And from carrying out the viewpoint consideration that more stable image forms, the peripheral speed of mono-layer electronic photographic photoreceptor is more preferably in the scope of 100~400mm/s, further preferably in the scope of 100~300mm/s.
