2. Description of the Related Art A polarizing film is a polarizing film such as a stretch-oriented polyvinyl alcohol-based film or a polyene-based film oriented by generating polyene by dehydrochlorination of a polyvinyl chloride film or dehydration of a polyvinyl alcohol-based film. It is manufactured by adding iodine or a dichroic dye as a polarizing element to a base material. Among them, the iodine-based polarizing film is excellent in initial polarization performance, but has poor durability against heat and water, and thus has a problem that its performance deteriorates at high temperature and high humidity. In order to improve such durability, a method of treating with an aqueous solution containing formaldehyde or boric acid, a method of using a polymer film having low moisture permeability as a protective film, and the like have been considered, but it is still sufficient. Absent.
