Abstract
A photosensitive body according to this invention includes a photosensitive layer formed on a surface thereof for being electrically charged and having an electrostatic latent image formed thereon by being exposed to light irradiation, and wherein the photosensitive layer has an initial dynamic friction coefficient μkof 0.6 or less against a prescribed member, and wherein where a dynamic friction coefficient of the photosensitive layer against the prescribed member after a prescribed friction is given is defined as a dynamic friction coefficient μk, the photosensitive layer has a dynamic friction coefficient variation amount Δμk, as a difference between the initial dynamic friction coefficient μkand the dynamic friction coefficient μk, of 0.06 or less. The photosensitive layer having the above mentioned structure has superior durability due to superior wear resistance, so that the photosensitive layer can be made thinner while preventing duration deterioration that may occur with the thinner photosensitive layer.
