Abstract

Abstract A photosensitive paper for electrophotography comprising a paper substrate, an electrophotographic photosensitive layer formed on one surface of the substrate and an electrically conductive coating layer formed on the other surface of the substrate, which electrically conductive coating layer comprises an electrically conductive binder medium and a fine powder of a fluorine resin distributed predominantly in the surface portion of the electrically conductive coating layer, is disclosed. This photosensitive paper is satisfactory in all of the following properties; adaptability to the paper feeding operation, the scratch resistance of the photosensitive layer, the blocking resistance and electric characteristics irrespective of the humidity conditions in the operation atmosphere.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 89 words
A photosensitive paper for electrophotography which comprises a paper substrate, an electrophotographic photosensitive layer formed on one surface of the paper substrate and an electrically conductive coating layer formed on the other surface of the paper substrate, said electrically conductive coating layer comprising an electrically conductive binder medium and from 0.1 to 20% by weight based on the entire binder medium of a fine powder of a fluorine resin having a particle size of 0.5 to 10μ distributed predominantly in the surface portion of said electrically conductive coating layer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 89 words
A photosensitive paper for electrophotography which comprises a paper substrate, an electrophotographic photosensitive layer formed on one surface of the paper substrate and an electrically conductive coating layer formed on the other surface of the paper substrate, said electrically conductive coating layer comprising an electrically conductive binder medium and from 0.1 to 20% by weight based on the entire binder medium of a fine powder of a fluorine resin having a particle size of 0.5 to 10μ distributed predominantly in the surface portion of said electrically conductive coating layer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
A photosensitive paper as set forth in claim 1 wherein the fluorine resin has an average molecular weight of 10,000 to 300,000.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
A photosensitive paper as set forth in claim 1 wherein the fluorine resin is a tetrafluoroethylene resin or trifluoromonochloroethylene resin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
A photosensitive paper as set forth in claim 1 wherein said electrically conductive binder medium is a medium comprising an electrically conductive resin.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 40 words
A photosensitive paper as set forth in claim 4 wherein the electrically conductive resin contains a quaternary ammonium group in the main chain or side chain at a concentration of 200 to 1000 milliequivalents per 100 g of the resin.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 23 words
A photosensitive paper as set forth in claim 1 wherein the electrically conductive binder medium comprises a binder resin and a conducting agent.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 24 words
