Abstract

An electrophotographic photoconductor where generation of cracks, crystallization of a photosensitive layer, and the like occur infrequently by sticking of finger oil. An electrophotographic photoconductor includes a conductive substrate on which a photosensitive layer containing at least a charge generating agent, a hole transfer agent and a binding resin is provided, wherein the binding resin is comprised of a plurality of polycarbonate resins; and the photosensitive layer contains a biphenyl derivative as a plasticizer component represented by the following general formula (1).(wherein R1 to R10 each independently represent a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, and R represents a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms or a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms).
