(I) A pH of the conductive material dispersion is 9.0 or greater. (II) A phase angle of the conductive material dispersion at a frequency of 1 Hz obtained by dynamic viscoelasticity measurement is 19° or greater, and a complex elastic modulus of the conductive material dispersion obtained by dynamic viscoelasticity measurement is less than 20 Pa.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing: a dispersant which enables the production of a dispersed material having excellent dispersibility and storage stability even when the dispersant is used in a small amount; a dispersed material having excellent dispersibility and storage stability; an electrode film having excellent adhesiveness and electrical conductivity; and a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery having excellent rate properties and cycle properties. The problem can be solved by a dispersant which is a polymer containing 40 to 100% by mass of a (meth)acrylonitrile-derived unit and having a weight average molecular weight of 5,000 to 400,000.
