Disclosed is a photosensitive element for electrophotography comprised of a layered structure having a polycyclic quinone pigment dispersed in an organic resin binder as a charge generating layer and an organic charge transport layer mixed with a resin binder.

Photosensitive element for electrophotography produced by sublimation

An electrophotographic photosensitive element having a conductive support provided thereon with a photosensitive layer comprising (i) a carrier-generating phase layer containing a carrier-generating material selected from the group consisting of perylene dyes, polycyclic quinones and azo dyes and (ii) a carrier-transporting phase layer containing a carrier-transporting material wherein said carrier-transporting phase comprises a hydrazone compound represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 each represent an aryl group which may have a substituent or substituents, and Ar represents an arylene group which may have a substituent or substituents.

Layered electrophotographic photosensitive element having hydrazone

An electrophotographic photosensitive element having a conductive support provided thereon with a photosensitive layer comprising a carrier-generating phase and a carrier-transporting phase. The carrier-transporting phase comprises a hydrazone compound to improve carrier-transporting ability having the formula ##STR1## wherein, X and Y each represent a hydrogen or a halogen, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 each represent an aryl group which may have a substituent or substituents, and Ar represents an arylene group which may have a substituent or substituents.
