An electrophotographic photoreceptor that can sufficiently prevent occurrence
of filming, whereby defects on an image can be sufficiently prevented, and an electrophotographic
process cartridge and an electrophotographic apparatus using the electrophotographic
photoreceptor are to be provided. The electrophotographic photoreceptor contains
an electroconductive substrate having provided thereon a photosensitive layer,
and an outermost layer of the photosensitive layer has a dynamic hardness of about
from 13.0109 to 100.0109 N/m2. According
to the invention, occurrence of flaws on the surface of the photoreceptor can be
sufficiently prevented, and cracking of a member made in contact with the photoreceptor
can also be sufficiently prevented. Therefore, occurrence of filming is sufficiently
prevented, and occurrence of defects on an image is also sufficiently prevented.
