Abstract
Backing layers, which may be useful for reducing torque in electrophotographic photoreceptors, are provided. The backing layers, which may be anti-curl backing layers, include a polymer matrix having a particulate inorganic lubricant and a particulate fluoropolymer uniformly dispersed therein. Also provided are electrophotographic photoreceptors that include a substrate and the backing layers, electrophotographic imaging apparatuses that include such photoreceptors, and methods for forming the photoreceptors.
