Electrophotographic photoreceptor for contact charging with dc voltage, process cartridge, and image forming apparatus

Abstract

An electrophotographic photoreceptor for contact charging with a DC voltage, includes a conductive substrate, an undercoat layer provided on the conductive substrate, a charge generation layer provided on the undercoat layer, a charge transport layer provided on the charge generation layer, and a surface protective layer provided on the charge transport layer, in which the surface protective layer is a cured film of a composition containing a reactive charge transport material and contains a hydroxy group and a benzene ring structure, and a value of a peak area of the hydroxy group/a peak area of the benzene ring structure that are measured by an attenuated total reflection method of infrared spectroscopy, is greater than 0.05 and 0.36 or less.
