Provided are electroconductive
polyamide composite fibers having less reduction in strength compared to conductive fibers containing non-modified resins and having preferable electroconductivity and preferable
staining properties with not only cationic dyes but also acid dyes. Electroconductive
polyamide composite fibers are characterized in that the composite fibers comprise a non-electroconductive layer formed with a terminal-modified
polyamide resin represented by formula 1 and having a
sulfonate salt-containing
triazine derivative substituting some of
hydrogen atoms in terminal amino groups of a polyamide resin and an electroconductive layer formed with a
fiber-forming resin containing an electroconductive substance, and the content of the
sulfonate salt-containing
triazine derivative is 0.4 equivalents-1.5 equivalents inclusive relative to the amount of terminal amino group of the polyamide resin. (In the formula, PA represents polyamide; R1 represents a phenolic
hydroxy group such as a phenoxy group, a cresoxy group, a xylenoxy group or a naphthoxy group, -NR2R3-SO3X or polyamide; R2 represents a
hydrogen atom or a
methyl group; R3 represents an aliphatic linear
substituent such as an
ethylene group or an n-propylene group, or an aromatic
substituent such as a
phenylene group or a methyl-
phenylene group; and X represents a
metal cation such as
sodium,
magnesium,
manganese or
lithium ion or an organic cation such as tert-butyl-
ammonium, benzyltrimethylammonium or p-methylphenylammonium
ion.)
