Abstract

A conductive composition including a mixture of a reaction product of PA1 a hole transporting hydroxy functionalized aryl amine, PA1 a hydroxy functionalized arylamine that is different from the hole transporting hydroxy functionalized aryl amine, PA1 a cross linkable polyamide, and PA1 and an acid capable of simultaneously cross linking the polyamide and oxidizing a portion of the hydroxy functionalized arylamine, the mixture of a reaction product including PA1 a hole transporting hydroxy functionalized aryl amine and PA1 an oxidized hydroxy functionalized aryl amine in a PA1 a crosslinked polyamide matrix. Other embodiments including processes for applying the aforementioned composition and processes for using devices containing the compositions in high speed laser printing and related printing systems are also disclosed.
