Abstract

Abstract An electrophoretic imaging system which is capable of polychromatic or monochromatic imaging is disclosed, using as at least a portion of the imaging material compounds which are the reaction product of a condensed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon aldehyde and certain ketones or amines containing active hydrogen. These compounds may also be used in the preparation of electrophotographic plates for xerography.
