電子線照射をする場合、加速器としてはスキャニング型、エレクトロカーテン型、ブロードビーム型及びパルス型及びラミナー型等いずれの形式も使用することができる。電子線を照射する場合に、本発明の電子写真感光体においては電気特性及び耐久性能を発現させる上で照射条件が非常に重要である。本発明において、加速電圧は250V以下が好ましく、最適には150V以下である。また、線量は好ましくは1Mrad〜100Mradの範囲、より好ましくは3Mrad〜50Mradの範囲である。加速電圧が250Vを超えると電子写真感光体特性に対する電子線照射のダメージが増加する傾向にある。また、線量が1Mradよりも少ない場合には硬化が不十分となり易く、線量が100Mradを超えた場合には電子写真感光体特性の劣化が起こり易いので注意が必要である。 In the case of electron beam irradiation, any type such as scanning type, electrocurtain type, broad beam type, pulse type and laminar type can be used as the accelerator. When irradiating an electron beam, the irradiation conditions are very important for exhibiting electrical characteristics and durability in the electrophotographic photosensitive member of the present invention. In the present invention, the acceleration voltage is preferably not more than 250 k V, and most preferably less than 0.99 k V. The dose is preferably in the range of 1 Mrad to 100 Mrad, more preferably in the range of 3 Mrad to 50 Mrad. Accelerating voltage tend to increase the damage of the electron beam irradiation for the electrophotographic photoreceptor characteristics exceeds 250 k V. Further, it should be noted that when the dose is less than 1 Mrad, curing is likely to be insufficient, and when the dose is more than 100 Mrad, the characteristics of the electrophotographic photosensitive member are likely to be deteriorated.

上記に記載したように、連鎖重合性官能基を有する正孔輸送性化合物を重合・硬化した電荷輸送層は下記の方法で示唆熱分析を行った場合、発熱量が60m/mg以下であり、好ましくは40m/mg以下である。この発熱は、主に電荷輸送層中の未反応の連鎖重合性官能基の反応による物と推定されるが、この発熱量の値が電子写真感光体の耐磨耗性は勿論、繰り返し使用や環境の変動による電位変動、更には転写メモリーやフォトメモリー等の各種メモリーにも極めて相関があり、上記値の場合が極めて良好な特性を発現することが判明した。 As described above, the charge transport layer obtained by polymerizing and curing the hole transporting compound having a chain-growth functional group has a calorific value of 60 mJ / mg or less when the differential thermal analysis is performed by the following method. , good Mashiku is less than or equal to 40m J / mg. This heat generation is presumed to be mainly due to the reaction of unreacted chain-growth functional groups in the charge transport layer, but the value of this heat generation amount is not only the wear resistance of the electrophotographic photosensitive member but also repeated use. It was found that there is an extremely high correlation between potential fluctuations due to environmental fluctuations and various memories such as transfer memory and photo memory, and that the above values exhibit extremely good characteristics.

次いで、化合物例No.6の正孔輸送性化合物60部をモノクロロベンゼン50部/ジクロロメタン30部の混合溶媒中に溶解し、電荷輸送層用塗料を調したこの塗料を前記の電荷発生層上にコーティングし、加速電圧150V、線量7Mradの条件で電子線を照射し樹脂を硬化することによって、膜厚が15μmの電荷輸送層を形成し、電子写真感光体を得た。 Next, Compound Example No. The hole transporting compound 60 parts of 6 was dissolved in a mixed solvent of monochlorobenzene 50 parts / dichloromethane 30 parts, was manufactured by adjusting the coating material for the charge transport layer. The paint was coated on the charge generating layer of the acceleration voltage 0.99 k V, by curing by irradiating the resin with an electron beam under conditions of a dose 7 Mrad, thickness to form a charge transport layer of 15 [mu] m, electrophotographic A photoconductor was obtained.

表3及び表4より明らかなように、本発明の電子写真感光体では高感度、低残留電位であり、各種環境での電位変動も極めて小さく、安定した特性を有している。更に、転写メモリーやフォトメモリー等も極めて小さく優れた特性を発現することが明らかである。なお、これらの特性は電荷輸送層の示差走査熱量測定の発熱量と相関が見られ、発熱量が60m/mg以下の場合が良好で、40m/mg以下の場合が特に良好であることが明確である。 As is clear from Tables 3 and 4, the electrophotographic photosensitive member of the present invention has high sensitivity, low residual potential, extremely small potential fluctuation in various environments, and has stable characteristics. Furthermore, it is clear that the transfer memory, the photo memory, etc. are extremely small and exhibit excellent characteristics. Note that these properties observed correlation with the amount of heat generated differential scanning calorimetry of the charge transport layer, when the heat quantity is less than 60 m J / mg is good, if: 40 m J / mg are particularly good Is clear.

次いで、化合物例No.263の正孔輸送性化合物60部をモノクロロベンゼン50部/ジクロロメタン30部の混合溶媒中に溶解し、電荷輸送層用塗料を調製したこの塗料を前記の電荷発生層上にコーティングし、加速電圧150V、線量30Mradの条件で電子線を照射し樹脂を硬化することによって、膜厚が13μmの電荷輸送層を形成し、電子写真感光体を得た。 Next, Compound Example No. 60 parts of the hole transporting compound of 263 was dissolved in a mixed solvent of 50 parts of monochlorobenzene / 30 parts of dichloromethane to prepare a coating material for a charge transport layer . The paint was coated on the above charge-generating layer, the acceleration voltage 0.99 k V, by curing by irradiating the resin with an electron beam under conditions of a dose 30 Mrad, thickness to form a charge transport layer of 13 .mu.m, electrophotographic A photoconductor was obtained.

これらの結果から、本発明の電子写真感光体は、ドットの再現性や文字の再現性に優れ高解像度の出力画像が得られることがわかる。また、欠陥がなく鮮明な画像が安定して得られた。これらの結果は、電荷輸送層の示差走査熱量測定の発熱量と相関が見られ、発熱量が60m/mg以下の場合が良好で、40m/mg以下の場合が特に良好であることが明確である。 From these results, it can be seen that the electrophotographic photosensitive member of the present invention is excellent in dot reproducibility and character reproducibility, and a high-resolution output image can be obtained. Moreover, a clear image without defects was stably obtained. These results are observed correlation with the amount of heat generated differential scanning calorimetry of the charge transport layer, when the heat quantity is less than 60 m J / mg is good, that the following cases 40 m J / mg are particularly good It's clear.
