Conductive paint comprises an organic solvent having dissolved and dispersed therein a binder containing a thermosetting resin and a hydroquinone derivative which is a product resulting from reaction between a hydroquinone (polyhydric phenol) and a fatty acid having 10 to 20 carbon atoms, added to the thermosetting resin, metal powder as a conductive material, and preferably a fatty acid derived from natural oils and fats and having 10 to 20 carbon atoms. This conductive paint exhibits characteristics not inferior to those of the conventional Ag conductive paint, such as low specific resistance, high moisture resistance and high heat resistance, and is much less expensive than the conventional Ag conductive paint. |
