METHOD FOR PEELING PHOTOSENSITIVE LAYER OF ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PHOTORECEPTOR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To peel a photosensitive layer in a short time into a clean state when a photosensitive layer on the surface of an electrophotographic photoreceptor is to be peeled so that no scratch remains on a conductive supporting body after the photoreceptor is removed so as to effectively reuse the supporting body and that the supporting body after the photosensitive layer is peeled can be smoothly processed. SOLUTION: Dry ice particles 18 are sprayed by compressed air in a spray amount of 0.5 to 2 kg/min to the electrophotographic photoreceptor 10 having a photosensitive layer 12 on the surface of a conductive supporting body at a pressure on the photoreceptor 10 in the range of 0.1 to 1.0 MPa so as to peel the photosensitive layer 12 from the surface of the conductive supporting body.
