Photoconductor having an overcoat with tetrafunctional radical polyermizable charge transport molecule and non-radical polymerizable additive

Abstract

An organic photoconductor drum includes a support element, a charge generation layer over the support element, a charge transport layer over the charge generation layer, and an overcoat layer. The overcoat layer includes a curable composition having both a non-radical polymerizable additive and a charge transport molecule containing four radical polymerizable functional groups exemplified as: where R1 and R2 contain a spacer group and a radical polymerizable functional group, R3 and R4 are hydrogen atoms, and R5 and R6 contain a spacer group and a radical polymerizable functional group wherein the spacer group of R1, R2, R5, and R6, is an ethyl group and the radical polymerizable functional group of R1, R2, R5 and R6 is an acrylate group. The non-radical polymerizable additive may be a surfactant. The curable composition may also include a curing agent.
