An electrophotographic photoreceptor is formed by a photosensitive layer containing a naphtylhydrazone compound of the formula: ##STR1## wherein X and Y are independently a hydrogen atom, lower alkyl group, lower alkoxy group, phenoxy group or arylalkoxy group; R.sup.1 is a naphtyl group; R.sup.2 is a hydrogen atom, lower alkyl group, allyl group, substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group, or aralkyl group; and l and m are 1 or 2. The photoreceptor thus formed is not only highly sensitive but resistant to ozone deterioration, which markedly improves the durability thereof.

Electrophotographic photoreceptor comprising a photosensitive layer

A photosensitive member for electrophotography having a photosensitive layer containing a hydrazone compound represented by the following general formula [I]: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group or a halogen atom; R.sup.3 represents a halogen atom; m is 1 or 2; and n is 0, 1 or 2. The photosensitive member has not only extremely high sensitivity but also sufficiently low residual potential. It is also highly resistant to fatigue so that the repeated use provides it with little accumulation of residual potential and little variation of surface potential and sensitivity.

This invention relates to an improved process for producing certain phosphinic acid derivatives of aminothio methyl carbamate by reacting N-(halothio)phosphinic acid amide and a carbamate compound in the presence of a cupric catalyst in high yields. These compounds are known to be useful as insecticides.

Process for preparing phosphinic acid derivatives of aminothio

A process for producing stabilized polyolefins comprising adding an epoxide to a polyolefin slurry obtained through polymerization of .alpha.-olefins in the presence of a catalyst containing a halide of a transition metal and an organoaluminum compound to render the catalyst remaining in the polymer inactive, and then subjecting the polyolefin slurry after the above inactivation treatment to an evaporation treatment. The process is extremely simple and results in polyolefins and molded products which are highly stable against discoloration and heat.
