Abstract
Abstract A novel metalo-phthalocyanine or an alkyl ester thereof in which each of two benzene nuclei of the four benzene nuclei condensed in the phthalocyanine ring has a carboxyl or alkoxy carbonyl radical attached thereto is well compatible with an organic polymer and thus provides an electroconductive polymer composition which may be formed into films or suitable articles.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
52 words
An electroconductive composition comprising (a) an electroconductive amount of 20-99% by weight of a metalo-phthalocyanine or an alkyl ester thereof in which each of two benzene nuclei of the four benzene nuclei condensed in the phthalocyanine ring has only one carboxyl or alkoxy carbonyl radical attached thereto, and (b) an organic polymer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
52 words
An electroconductive composition comprising (a) an electroconductive amount of 20-99% by weight of a metalo-phthalocyanine or an alkyl ester thereof in which each of two benzene nuclei of the four benzene nuclei condensed in the phthalocyanine ring has only one carboxyl or alkoxy carbonyl radical attached thereto, and (b) an organic polymer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
The composition according to claim 1 wherein the radical attached to each of the substituted benzene nuclei is a carboxyl radical.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
The composition according to claim 1 wherein the radical attached to each of the substituted benzene nuclei is an alkoxy carbonyl radical.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
The composition according to claim 1 wherein the carboxyl or alkoxy carbonyl radical is attached to each of the benzene nuclei at their respective 3- or 4-positions.
