Claims
- 1. A photosensitive body for electrophotographical use, comprising:a conductive base body having a first surface part and a second surface part, the second surface part having optical reflective characteristics different from those of the first surface part; and a photosensitive layer provided on the conductive base body by applying a photosensitive liquid, wherein the second surface part is formed so as to have a portion on which the photosensitive body flows more easily in providing the photosensitive layer than on the rest of the second surface part.
- 2. The photosensitive body for electrophotographical use as defined in claim 1,wherein the second surface part has processed parts and unprocessed parts pointing in a direction not orthogonal to a gravity direction of the conductive base body upon the application of the photosensitive liquid and being separated mutually by intervals, the unprocessed parts continuously extending in a direction not orthogonal to the gravity direction of the conductive base upon the application of the photosensitive liquid.
- 3. The photosensitive body for electrophotographic use as defined in claim 1,wherein the second surface part has a groove part for collecting and allowing an excessive amount of the photosensitive liquid to flow down in the second surface part.
