The present invention relates to a polyvinyl alcohol film comprising a vinyl alcohol-based polymer, the polyvinyl alcohol film having an NMR signal intensity at 0.10 milliseconds of 78% or less of the initial intensity, when the polyvinyl alcohol film after immersing in water at 60° C. for 2 hours is measured as a measurement sample by a solid echo method using pulse NMR at 60° C.
According to the polyvinyl alcohol film of the present invention, a polarizing film having good polarization performance, which is unlikely to decrease even under high humidity, can be manufactured.
