Electrophotographic photosensitive member, process cartridge and electrophotographic apparatus, and process for producing electrophotographic photosensitive member

A process for producing an electrophotographic photosensitive member;

• the process comprising a conductive layer forming step of forming on a support a conductive layer having a volume resistivity of from more than 8.0×108 Ωcm to 1.0×1011 Ωcm or less, an intermediate layer forming step of forming an intermediate layer on the conductive layer, and a photosensitive layer forming step of forming a photosensitive layer on the intermediate layer;
• in said conductive layer forming step, the layer being formed by using a conductive layer coating fluid which contains (a) TiO2 particles coated with oxygen deficient SnO2 (P) having an average particle diameter of from 0.20 μm or more to 0.60 μm or less and (b) a binding material (B), wherein a mass ratio of (P):(B) is from 2.3:1.0 to 3.3:1.0.
