Abstract:
1. A method of providing an electrophotographic article comprising a complex of charge generating material and at least one transfer material selected from the group consisting of electron transfer material and hole transfer material, the method comprising: admixing the charge generating material, said at least one transfer material, and an organic binder in a solvent to form a coatable dispersion comprising a complex of charge generating material and said at least one transfer material; and coating said coatable dispersion onto a conductive substrate to form a charge transfer layer on the electrophotoconductive article; wherein the charge generating compound comprises a titanyl oxyphthalocyanine compound which has major peaks in terms of Bragg's 2theta angle to the CuK-α characteristic X-ray wavelength at 1.541 Angstroms at least at 9.5+0.2 degrees, 11.7+0.2 degrees, 15.0+0.2 degrees, 23.5+0.2 degrees, 24.1+0.2 degrees, 26.4+0.2 and 27.3+−0.2 degrees.
