Electrophotographic photosensitive material.

摘要

The invention presents an electrophotographic photosensitive material possessing a surface layer excellent in wear resistance, without adversely affecting the photosensitive characteristics, wherein a photosensitive layer and a surface protective layer containing a thermoset silicone resin are laminated in this order on a substrate surface, and the silicone resin of the surface protective layer is hardened by a hardening catalyst mainly composed of at least one compound selected from a group of a compound expressed in general formula (I) and a compound expressed in general formula (II). <CHEM> i
