Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 103 words
An electrophotographic element comprising a conductive layer, a organic photoconductive layer and a barrier layer between the conductive layer and the photoconductive layer characterized in that the barrier layer is capable of supporting an electric field in excess of 6×10 5 v/cm and comprises a polymerized crosslinked monomer having the structure ##STR10## wherein R 15 a cycloaliphatic or aromatic group; R 1 15 represents hydrogen or alkyl; R 2 15 alkylene of 1 to 20 carbon atoms, or --CH 2 CH 2 (OCH 2 CH 2 )n; p is 0 or 1; m is 1 to 6; and n is 1 to 20.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 103 words
An electrophotographic element comprising a conductive layer, a organic photoconductive layer and a barrier layer between the conductive layer and the photoconductive layer characterized in that the barrier layer is capable of supporting an electric field in excess of 6×10 5 v/cm and comprises a polymerized crosslinked monomer having the structure ##STR10## wherein R 15 a cycloaliphatic or aromatic group; R 1 15 represents hydrogen or alkyl; R 2 15 alkylene of 1 to 20 carbon atoms, or --CH 2 CH 2 (OCH 2 CH 2 )n; p is 0 or 1; m is 1 to 6; and n is 1 to 20.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
The electrophotographic element of claim 1, wherein the barrier layer comprises a polymerized crosslinked monomer having the formula: ##STR11## in which n is from 2 to 6.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
