Claims25
A photoconductive member comprised of a substrate, a photogenerating layer, a charge transport layer, and an overcoat layer wherein said overcoat layer is comprised of a crosslinked siloxane composite containing a caprolactone-siloxane copolymer group.
A photoconductive member comprised of a substrate comprised of a conductive metal of aluminum, aluminized polyethylene terephthalate or titanized polyethylene terephthalate;
- a photogenerating layer comprised of hydroxygallium phthalocyanine or chlorogallium phthalocyanine;
- a charge transport layer containing N,N′-diphenyl-N,N-bis(3-methyl phenyl)-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4′-diamine and/or N,N-bis(3,4-dimethyl phenyl)-N-biphenylamine, and a binder of a polycarbonate;
- and an overcoat layer, wherein said overcoat layer is comprised of a crosslinked siloxane composite containing a caprolactone-siloxane copolymer group of the formula
- wherein m is from about 10 to about 50, and n is from about 10 to about 50.
A photoconductive component comprised of a photogenerating layer, a charge transport layer, and an overcoat layer wherein said overcoat layer is comprised of a crosslinked siloxane composite containing a caprolactone-siloxane polymer, and wherein said caprolactone-siloxane copolymer is of the formula
- wherein R1 and R2 are each alkyl, aryl;
- R″ represents an organic component;
- and m and n represent the number of repeating groups.
