An object of the present invention is to form images repeatedly in a high humidity environment by using a photoreceptor having a protective layer formed by crosslinking a crosslinkable resin containing a polymerizable compound having a charge transporting structure on the surface. Even so, an object of the present invention is to provide a lubricant, an image forming apparatus, and a process cartridge capable of suppressing the occurrence of image blur. The lubricant applied to the photoreceptor includes a lubricating substance, a general formula (In the formula, X and Y are each independently an aryl group optionally substituted by a substituent, and n and m are each independently 1 or 2.) The compound represented by these is included. [Selection figure] None |
