Abstract
Crystals of hydroxygallium phthalocyanine, a method of preparing the crystals, a photoconductive material containing the crystals, and an electrophotographic photoreceptor having the material. The photoreceptor has excellent electrophotographic characteristics. The crystals of hydroxygallium phthalocyanine have distinct diffraction peaks at (i) 7.5.degree., 9.9.degree., 12.5.degree., 16.3.degree., 18.6.degree., 25.1.degree. and 28.3.degree., or (ii) 7.7.degree., 16.5.degree., 25.1.degree. and 26.6.degree., or (iii) 7.9.degree., 16.5.degree., 24.4.degree. and 27.6.degree., or (iv) 7.0.degree., 7.5.degree., 10.5.degree., 11.7.degree., 12.7.degree., 17.3.degree., 8.1.degree., 24.5.degree., 26.2.degree. and 27.1.degree., or (v) 6.8.degree., 12.8.degree., 15.8.degree. and 26.0.degree. or (vi) 7.4.degree., 9.9.degree., 25.0.degree., 26.0.degree., and 28.2.degree. of the Bragg angle (2.theta..+-.0.2) in the X-ray diffraction spectrum. The electrophotographic photoreceptor has a light-sensitive layer containing the photoconductive material of the crystals.
