Claim 0:
1. A conductive polymer fiber, wherein a conductor containing a conductive polymer impregnates and adheres to base fibers, the base fibers are fibers which are at least one selected from the group consisting of nylon, polyester, acrylic, aramid, polyurethane, and carbon fiber, the conductor is arranged with close adhesion to said base fibers among a plurality of said base fibers so that the conductor bonds the base fibers to each other,
the base fibers are straight fibers,
the conductor contains sphingosine as an additive, and
a concentration of the additive in the conductor is 0.1 to 50 wt %, and the interior of said base fibers is impregnated with said conductor,
metal or carbon coats an exterior surface of said base fibers, and
an exterior surface of said metal or carbon coating is coated by said conductor.
