Patent ID: 11853004

Abstract:
An electrophotographic photoconductor includes: a conductive substrate; and a single-layer-type photoconductive layer that is provided on the conductive substrate, contains a binder resin, a charge generating material, a hole transporting material, and an electron transporting material, and has an index A represented by the following equation (1) in a range of −7.98 or more and −7.28 or less, Equation (1): A=(0.057×M)−(0.002×F)−(0.252×μ), in which, in the equation (1), M represents a Martens hardness of the single-layer-type photoconductive layer, F represents a Young's modulus of the single-layer-type photoconductive layer, and μ represents an elastic deformation ratio of the single-layer-type photoconductive layer.
