Abstract:
A method to make an improved organic photoconductor drum of an electrophotographic image forming device is provided. The improved organic photoconductor drum is prepared using a curable composition including a charge transport molecule containing four radical polymerizable functional groups containing an oxygen atom of the general structure shown below: wherein R 1  and R 2  contain a spacer group and a radical polymerizable hydrophilic functional group containing an oxygen atom, R 3  and R 4  are a non-radical polymerizable functional group, and R 5  and R 6  contain a spacer group and a radical polymerizable hydrophilic functional group containing an oxygen atom. The curable composition may also contain at least one optional curing agent.

Claim (Index 14):
A method of preparing a photoconductor comprising:\n providing an electrically conductive substrate; preparing a charge generation layer dispersion: coating the charge generation layer dispersion onto the electrically conductive substrate to form a charge generation layer; preparing a charge transport layer dispersion: coating the charge transport layer dispersion over the charge generation layer to form a charge transport layer; preparing an overcoat layer including:\n an organic solvent; \n a curable composition including a charge transport molecule containing four radical polymerizable hydrophilic functional groups having an oxygen atom as shown below: \n wherein R 1  and R 2  contain a spacer group and a radical polymerizable hydrophilic functional group having an oxygen atom, R 3  and R 4  are a non-radical polymerizable functional group, and R 5  and R 6  contain a spacer group and a radical polymerizable hydrophilic functional group having an oxygen atom wherein the spacer group of R 1 , R 2 , R 5  and R 6  is an ethyl group and the radical polymerizable hydrophilic functional group having an oxygen atom of R 1 , R 2 , R 5  and R 6  is an acrylate group; coating the overcoat layer formulation over the charge transport layer; and curing the overcoat layer formulation to form a photoconductor having an overcoat layer over the charge transport layer and the charge generation layers.
