Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for manufacturing a fluorinated structured organic film (FSOF) composition for a photoreceptor. The method includes combining a fluorinated diol, an electroactive segment and a solvent in a round bottom reactor. The reacted is heated, without mixing dissolve the fluorinated diol composition. The dissolved fluorinated diol composition is mixed to dissolve the electroactive segment while maintaining the reactor at a temperature of between 80 and 85° C. A catalyst and a leveling agent are added to the solution to initiate a pre-cure reaction. The pre-cure reaction proceeds for at least 2 hours at a temperature of between 80 and 85° C. The solution is cooled to room temperature and filtered.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an imaging member that includes a substrate, a charge generating layer, a charge transport layer; and an outermost layer comprising a structured organic film (SOF) comprising a fluorinated molecular building block and a hole molecular building block, wherein the fluorinated molecular building block is present in the SOF of the outermost layer in an amount of from about 1 weight percent to about 20 weight percent of the SOF.

Abstract: A removable protective coating for a photoreceptor that includes a colorant of a preselected color and a lubricant for providing initial lubrication to the photoreceptor and cleaning system blade or brush. The coating also includes a binding agent that is configured to attach the colorant and the lubricant together. The removable protective coating further includes a solution mixed with the colorant, the lubricant, and the binding agent, the mixed solution being applied to an exterior surface of the photoreceptor drying to form the removable protective coating. The removable protective coating is removed by the cleaning system during startup, providing lubrication to the cleaning system and the photoreceptor.
