An intermediate transfer material which is disposed between a latent image-carrier and a recording medium and is primary-transferred thereon a toner image formed on the latent image-carrier, wherein the intermediate transfer material is formed by a polyimide resin having dispersed therein an electrically conductive agent and having a glass transition temperature of 245° C. or lower, and an image-forming apparatus using the above-described intermediate transfer material. The intermediate transfer material does not give image defects such as white spots, etc., caused by lowering of resistivity by the influence of a transferring electric field.
