Electrophotographic photoconductive elements

An electrophotographic photosensitive element which comprises a conductive support and at least a photosensitive layer formed on said conductive support, said photosensitive layer comprising sensitizing dye treated zinc oxide, a polycarbonate binder used in an amount ranging from 5 to 400 parts by weight per hundred parts by weight of said zinc oxide, and a compound of the general formula (I) used in an amount ranging from 5 to 500 parts by weight per hundred parts by weight of said zinc oxide, ##STR5## in which R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkenyl group, or an aryl group, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstitued alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkenyl group, a cycloalkenyl group, or an aryl group, R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.9 and R.sub.10 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkenyl group, an aryl group, an alkoxy group or an amino group, and optionally R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 are able to jointly form a saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon ring having from 3 to 10 carbon atoms.
