AI Technical Summary
Existing electrophotographic photosensitive members experience potential fluctuations during mass printing and high-speed printing due to insufficient electron mobility and charge retention, leading to reduced image quality over repeated use.
Incorporating a specific polymer with structural units in the undercoat layer to improve electron mobility, using polymers with structural units represented by formulas (1) and (2), which help distribute perylene imide and naphthalene imide molecules uniformly, thereby suppressing potential fluctuations.
The solution effectively stabilizes image quality by enhancing electron mobility and reducing potential fluctuations, ensuring consistent image density during repeated use.
