ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC MEMBER, PROCESS CARTRIDGE AND ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHY DEVICE

摘要

[Problem] To provide an electrophotographic member of an electrophotographic device wherein the occurrence of banding in images due to uneven charging is suppressed. [Solution] This electrophotographic member has a conductive base body and a surface layer. The surface layer includes a binder resin and an aggregate of at least one crystal grain selected from the group consisting of flaky crystal grains of magnesium carbonate and flaky crystal grains of calcium carbonate. On the surface of the aggregate, the end surface of a card house structure formed by crystal grains is exposed; the surface of the surface layer has protrusions derived from the aggregate, and the surface of the protrusions has irregularities formed reflecting the shapes of the end surface of the card house structure exposed on the surface of the aggregate.
