Abstract
The present invention provides an electrically-semiconductive poly(amic acid) liquid composition and a use thereof. An electrically-semiconductive poly(amic acid) (polyimide precursor) liquid composition whose electrical semiconductivity is applied by comprising an electrically-conductive carbon black. Change in an electrical resistivity of the liquid composition after being stored for 180 days at a temperature of 23° C. and in an atmosphere of a RH of 65% is 7% or less based on the electrical resistivity immediately after the preparation of the liquid composition. The electrically-semiconductive poly(amic acid) liquid composition is obtainable by mixing 5-40 parts by weight of a poly(amic acid), 95-60 parts by weight of an organic polar solvent and 10-40% by weight based on the poly(amic acid) of an electrically-conductive carbon black having a volatile content of 5-20%, a specific surface area of 100-300 m,/g and a pH of 2-4. The electrically-semiconductive poly(amic acid) liquid composition is used for molding an electrically-semiconductive seamless tubular polyimide film, for example, which is usable as an intermediate belt member for fixation and transfer of toner in a copying machine.
