Moisture sensor
First Claim
1. A moisture sensor comprising a pair of electrodes and a moisture-sensitive film disposed therebetween having conductive particles dispersed in a hygroscopic polymer composition comprising a polyether amine having at least two amino groups, and an epoxy compound having at least two epoxy groups and an ether bond.

Abstract
A moisture sensor includes a moisture-sensitive film between a pair of electrodes having conductive particles dispersed in a hygroscopic polymer. The hygroscopic polymer is a polymer comprising a polyether amine, an epoxy compound, and optionally a water-soluble nylon. Alternatively, the hygroscopic polymer is a polyether ester amide and optionally a water-soluble nylon. The sensor enables DC measurement, can detect a humidity in the range of RH 60% to 100%, and ensures high performance stability against repetitive operations.
