Abstract

Abstract An electrophotographic recording material comprises an electrically conductive base material, an optional insulating intermediate layer and a photoconductive layer comprising at least one layer containing an asymmetrically substituted perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic acid imide as charge carrier producing compound, a photoconductor as charge transport compound, binder and customary additives. The asymmetrically substituted perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic acid imide can, for example, be represented by the formula ##STR1## where R denotes hydrogen, alkyl, hydroxyalky, alkoxyalkyl, aryl or aralkyl and A denotes phenylene, naphthylene or a more highly fused aromatic carbocylic or heterocyclic radical which can each be substituted by halogen, alkyl, cyano or nitro groups. This material is suitable in double-layer arrangement for highly light sensitive systems, and in a single layer for preparing printing forms or printed circuits.
