Abstract
The photoconductor of the invention includes a cylindrical substrate, and an organic photoconductive layer formed on the cylindrical substrate. The substrate is made of the material which contains polyphthalamide resin to which carbon black is added to lower the volume resistivity of the material to 10.sup.4 .OMEGA. cm or less. Reinforcing agent such as glass fibers may also be added to add dimensional and mechanical strength and stability. The photoconductive layer has a charge generating layer composed of a hydrozone compound.
