A photoconductor that includes, for example, a supporting substrate, an optional ground plane layer, an optional hole blocking layer, an optional adhesive layer, a photogenerating layer, and a charge transport layer, and where the charge transport layer contains a mixture of a charge transport component and a polycarbonate AP.

Polycarbonate containing photoconductors

A photoconductor that includes, for example, a supporting substrate, an optional ground plane layer, an optional hole blocking layer, an optional adhesive layer, an optional anticurl layer, a photogenerating layer, and a charge transport layer comprised of a first charge transport compound, a second dissimilar charge transport compound, a fluoropolymer and a polyarylatecarbonate.

Polyarylatecarbonate fluoropolymer containing photoconductors

Embodiments pertain to a novel imaging member, namely, an imaging member or photoreceptor comprising an overcoat layer which comprises a soluble filler that improves low surface energy and wear. The soluble filler is a silicone poly(ethylene glycol) ester which improves low surface energy and wear without negatively impacting electrical properties of the overcoat layer.

Cross-linked overcoat layer

The presently disclosed embodiments are directed generally to an electrostatographic imaging member having low surface energy and is wear resistant. The imaging members include a charge transport layer that comprises a silicone ester additive that provides these beneficial properties.

Charge transport layer comprising silicone ester compounds

Embodiments pertain to a novel imaging member, namely, an imaging member or photoreceptor comprising a binderless overcoat layer which exhibits substantially improved electrical performance, such as low residual potential and good electrical cyclic stability. The overcoat layer of the present embodiments is formed from a formulation comprising a small transport molecule, a crosslinking agent, an acid catalyst and a solvent.

Binderless overcoat layer

An imaging member includes a supporting substrate, an optional hole blocking layer, an optional adhesive layer, an imaging layer, and an overcoat layer, wherein the overcoat layer comprises a fluorosulfonamide. The overcoat layer can further include a charge transport compound and a melamine resin.

Imaging member with fluorosulfonamide-containing overcoat layer

A photoconductor that includes, for example, a supporting substrate, an optional ground plane layer, an optional hole blocking layer, an optional adhesive layer, a photogenerating layer, a charge transport layer, and an optional protective coating, and where the charge transport layer contains a mixture of a charge transport component and a polyarylatecarbonate.

Polyarylatecarbonate containing photoconductors

The presently disclosed embodiments relate generally to layers that are useful in imaging apparatus members and components, for use in electrophotographic, including digital printing, apparatuses. More particularly, the embodiments pertain to an improved electrophotographic imaging member comprising a charge transport layer comprising a novel combination of a tetraaryl polycarbonate copolymer binder and perfluorinated fillers. The present charge transport layer provides reduced wear rate and long service life.

Imaging member layers

Embodiments pertain to a novel imaging member, namely, an imaging member or photoreceptor comprising a protective outer layer which comprises light-absorbing composition that substantially prevents any light absorption by the overcoat layer. The composition comprises a low strength thermal plastic resin and a high optical density yellow dye. Thus, the light-blocking protective layer reduces the intrinsic light shock suffered by conventional overcoat layers without negatively impacting electrical properties of the overcoat layer and while improving print quality.

Protective photoreceptor outer layer

The presently disclosed embodiments relate generally to layers that are useful in imaging apparatus members and components, for use in electrophotographic, including digital printing, apparatuses. More particularly, the embodiments pertain to an improved electrophotographic imaging member comprising an overcoat layer which prevents image quality issues such as deletion. The overcoat layer comprises a phenolic triarylamine charge transport molecule, an aminoplast and a triamino triphenyl compound.
