Electrophotographic photoreceptor, process cartridge, and image forming apparatus

Abstract

An electrophotographic photoreceptor includes a conductive substrate, and a lamination-type photosensitive layer disposed on the conductive substrate and having a charge generation layer and a charge transport layer, in which the charge transport layer contains a polyarylate resin having a dicarboxylic acid unit (A) represented by Formula (A) and a diol unit (B) represented by Formula (B), the charge generation layer contains, as a charge generation material, a chlorogallium phthalocyanine, and a value of a content of a binder resin to a total content of the binder resin and the charge generation material in the charge generation layer is more than 0.4 and less than 0.7, in Formula (A), ArA1 and Ar42 are each independently an aromatic ring which may have a substituent, LA is a single bond or a divalent linking group, and nA1 is 0, 1, or 2, in Formula (B), ArB1 and ArB2 are each independently an aromatic ring which may have a substituent, LB is a single bond, an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, or —C(Rb1)(Rb2)—, and nB1 is 0, 1, or 2, where Rb1 and Rb2 are each independently a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 or more and 20 or less carbon atoms, an aryl group having 6 or more and 12 or less carbon atoms, or an aralkyl group having 7 or more and 20 or less carbon atoms, and Rb1 and Rb2 may be bonded to each other to form a cyclic alkyl group.
