ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PHOTORECEPTOR, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PHOTORECEPTOR, PROCESS CARTRIDGE, AND ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrophotographic photoreceptor that is excellent and capable of achieving both sustainable relaxation of a contact stress with a contact member or the like and suppression of a potential variation in repeated use, a method for manufacturing the electrophotographic photoreceptor, and a process cartridge and an electrophotographic apparatus including the electrophotographic photoreceptor.SOLUTION: The electrophotographic photoreceptor has a charge transporting layer that comprises a charge transporting substance, and as resins, a polycarbonate resin (A) having a specific structural unit and a resin (D) having a specific structural unit. The charge transporting layer has a domain comprising the polycarbonate resin (A) in a matrix comprising the charge transporting substance and the resin (D).
