COATING METHOD SUITABLE FOR USE IN PRODUCTION OF PHOTOSENSITIVE MEMBER FOR ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHY

摘要

A coating method is disclosed, wherein a substrate is coated with a paint discharged through an aperture in the form of not a spray but a continuous string. The coating method is suitably applied to a process for producing a photosensitive member for electrophotography, wherein a paint for providing the photosensitive member, such as the one for providing a photosensitive layer or intermediate layer, is discharged onto a rotating cylindrical substrate to be wound thereabout preferably like a thread on a spool, followed by leveling to form a coating film.
