The present invention provides polyamide-imide fibers for a bag filter comprising a polyamide-imide resin produced by reacting an isocyanate component and an acid anhydride component, the isocyanate component comprising 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate in an amount of at least 60 mol % of the isocyanate component.

Polyamide-imide fibers for a bag filter

Disclosed is a thin film EL panel having a high reliability. The thin film El panel is thin, light, and is made at a low cost. The present invention provides in a thin film electroluminescent (EL) panel comprising a light permeable base plate, a thin film EL element formed on the base plate and a moisture-proof sheet covered thereon, an improvement residing in that a moisture-absorption sheet is placed between said thin film EL element and said moisture-proof sheet, and said moisture-absorption sheet comprises an organic polymer sheet with silica gel powder dispersed therein at a certain surface density. The present invention also provides in a thin film electroluminescent (EL) panel comprising a light permeable base plate, a thin film EL element formed on the base plate and a moisture-proof sheet covered thereon, an improvement residing in that a moisture-absorption layer is formed on the inside surface of the moisture-proof sheet by coating powder thereon having moisture absorption properties.
