ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PHOTORECEPTOR AND IMAGE FORMING METHOD

PURPOSE: To suppress the deterioration or fatigue of a photoreceptor in an electrophotographic process adopting contact electrification. CONSTITUTION: In this electrophotographic photoreceptor for contact electrification having an electric charge generating layer and an electric charge transferring layer on the electrically conductive substrate, the electric charge transferring layer contains a resin binder and an electric charge transferring material, and a phenolic antioxidant is incorporated into the electric charge transferring layer by 0.5-5wt.% of the amt. of the electric charge transferring material.
