Abstract

The electroconductive laminate according to the present invention is obtained by laminating a hard coat layer and an electrically conducting layer on at least one surface of a polycarbonate base. This electroconductive laminate is characterized in that the hard coat layer is formed from a hard coating composition which contains (A) a phenolic novolac acrylate having two or more acrylate groups, (B) an orthophenyl phenol acrylate containing 1-2 mol of an ethylene oxide structure in each molecule and (C) a bisphenol skeleton-containing diacrylate containing 2-4 mol of an alkylene oxide structure having two or three carbon atoms in each molecule.

(C) a bisphenol structure-containing diacrylate having 2 to 4 moles of alkylene oxide structure with two or three carbon atoms in each molecule, wherein
the hard coating composition comprises
40 to 50 parts by mass of the phenolic novolac acrylate (A),
25 to 35 parts by mass of the orthophenyl phenol acrylate (B), and
10 to 20 parts by mass of the diacrylate (C), with respect to 100 parts by mass of a resin content in the hard coating composition.

2. The electroconductive laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the phenolic novolac acrylate (A) is represented by the following formula (I):
