Claims11
An electrophotographic recording material comprising an electroconductive support material with a photoconductive double layer of organic materials composed of a tightly packed, homogeneous, uniform, opaque, charge carrier producing dyestuff layer prepared by vacuum evaporation of the dyestuff and a transparent top layer of insulating materials with at least one charge transporting compound, in which the organic dyestuff layer is composed of the general formula ##STR2## in which R is a hydroxyl or amino group,
- R.sub.1 is phenyl, naphthyl or quinolyl which are optionally substituted by hydroxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy, nitro groups, halogen or by carbamoyl or sulfonamido groups which are optionally substituted at the nitrogen by C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkenyl, phenyl or cyclohexyl groups,
- R.sub.2 is hydrogen, amino or carbamoyl, which may be N-substituted by phenyl, naphthyl or benzimidazolonyl
- and in which the transparent top layer is composed of a mixture of a charge transporting monomeric heterocyclic compound with at least one substituted amino group and having an extended .pi.-electron system, which is selected from the group of oxazoles, oxdiazoles, triazoles, imidazoles and pyrazoles, and a binder in a ratio by weight of about 1:1,
- which recording material is useful in an electrophotographic copying process with negative charging of the top layer.
