Estimating the term…
An image-bearing member suitable for carrying an electrostatic image and/or a toner image is formed by forming a surface layer on a substrate or a photosensitive layer. The surface layer comprises a polymerized and cured product of a photoionically polymerizable compound having two or more functional groups, and shows excellent mechanical and electrical resistance as well as excellent charge-retaining characteristic. As a result, the surface layer provides an image-bearing surface suitable for electrophotography. The surface layer may be a protective layer or a photoconductive layer when it constitutes a photosensitive member.
An image-bearing member for electrophotography, comprising a surface layer gapable of repeatedly forming electrophotographic images thereon, said surface layer comprising a polymerized and cured product of a photoionically polymerizable compound having two or more functional groups.
An apparatus unit, comprising:
An electrophotographic apparatus, comprising:
A facsimile apparatus, comprising:
