PURPOSE:To obtain a photoreceptor having high sensitivity and superior durability and not causing peeling of a photosensitive layer, etc., by forming an undercoat containing a polyamide resin on a conductive support, and providing a photoconductive layer containing polyvinyl butyral resin, especially a charge generating layer on this undercoat. CONSTITUTION:A thin undercoat is formed on a conductive support by coating a solution of linear polyamide, preferably nylon copolymer, and a charge generating layer containing a photoconductor, such as bisazo pigment, and polyvinyl butyral as a binder is formed on the undercoat, and a charge transfer layer is formed on the charge generating layer to make up a photoreceptor, thus permitting polyvinyl butyral to raise adhesion between the support and the charge generating layer, peeling or the like to be prevented, the charge generating layer to be formed into uniform thickness, and a sharp image to be formed with high sensitivity. |
