Abstract
The invention provides a humidity-sensitive element using, as a humidity-sensitive film, a polyimide having a molecular structure capable of forming a network structure at a high density, exhibiting less drift after being left standing at a high temperature and a high humidity and having excellent characteristics. A humidity-sensitive element according to the invention uses the polyimide obtained by dehydrating and ring closing a polyamide acid forming a network structure in which terminals of basic molecular chains are interconnected with one another, as a humidity-sensitive film. The humidity-sensitive element of the invention suitably uses a polyimide, in which terminals of basic molecular chains are interconnected with one another by use of triamine or a tricarboxylic acid, as a humidity sensitive film.
