Abstract

An imaging member containing an optional supporting substrate, a photogenerating layer and at least one charge transport layer of at least one charge transport component, at least one C-ether of the formulawherein R1, R2, R3 and R4 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, substituted alkyl, substituted aryl, substituted alkoxy, and halogen, and the sum of n plus m (n+m) is from about 1 to about 10, and an optional antioxidant; and wherein a thiophosphate is contained in the photogenerating layer.
