Abstract

An electrophotographic photoconductor comprising at least an electroconductive support and a photoconductive layer which is formed on said electroconductive support, the outermost layer of the photoconductor contains particles comprising a polyorganosiloxane-containing phase which contains polyorganosiloxane and an organic polymer-containing phase which contains organic polymer without silicon and has a polyorganosiloxane content which is less than the polyorganosiloxane-containing phase, each phase being exposed at the top surface of the photoconductor.
