Claims
- 1. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor which comprises an electroconductive substrate having placed thereon a photosensitive layer, said layer containing a bisazo compound represented by the formula (I) and a diamine derivative represented by the formula (IV): ##STR29## wherein X represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms or an alkoxy group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms and Y represents a group represented by one of the formula (II) --CONH--Ar and the formula (III) --CONHN.dbd.CH--Ar in which Ar represents a group selected from ##STR30## wherein X' represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms or an alkoxy group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms; each n represents independently an integer of 0-5 and each of R.sub.1 -R.sub.4 represents independently a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group or an alkoxy group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
- 2. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 1, wherein X represents a chlorine atom.
- 3. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 1, wherein X' represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl, ethyl, methoxy or ethoxy group, and each of R.sub.1 -R.sub.4 represents hydrogen or a methyl, ethyl, methoxy or ethoxy group.
- 4. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 1, wherein the photosensitive layer additionally contains a phenolic antioxidant in an amount of 1-20% by weight based on weight of the diamine derivative represented by the formula [IV].
- 5. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 1, wherein an intermediate layer is present between the electroconductive substrate and the photosensitive layer.
- 6. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 5, wherein the intermediate layer is composed of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of aluminium oxide, indium oxide, tin oxide, polyethylene, acrylic resins, epoxy resins, polycarbonates, polyurethanes, vinyl chloride resin, vinyl acetate resin, polyvinyl alcohol, polyamide resin and urethane resin.
- 7. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 1, wherein the photosensitive layer contains a charge transporting agent and an electrophotoacceptor in a proportion of 3% by weight or less based on the weight of the charge transporting agent.
- 8. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to 7, wherein the electrophotoacceptor is at least one compound selected from the group consisting of compounds represented by formulas [V]-(1)-[V]-(3): ##STR31## (wherein each of X.sub.1 and Y.sub.1 represents independently an alkyl group, an alkoxy group or an alkyl amino group, each of X.sub.2 and Y.sub.2 represents independently an alkyl group or an alkoxy group and each of X.sub.3 and Y.sub.3 represents independently an alkyl group or an alkoxy group).
- 9. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 1, wherein each n represents 2.
- 10. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 9, wherein each of R.sub.1 -R.sub.4 represents independently a methyl or methoxy group.
- 11. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 1, wherein each n represents independently 1 or 2.
- 12. An organic electrophotographic photoreceptor according to claim 11, wherein each of R.sub.1 -R.sub.4 represents independently a methyl, ethyl, methoxy or ethoxy group.
