A soil resistant fiber structure, including a fiber and a soil resistant resin fixed to at least a part of a surface of the fiber, wherein the resin has, in at least a part inside the resin, one or more regions dyed with osmium oxide as observed with a transmission electron microscope, at least one of the regions is circular, the regions have a maximum diameter of 100 nm or more and 500 nm or less, and the soil resistant fiber structure has a mass concentration ratio of oxygen atoms to fluorine atoms (O/F) of 3 or more as obtained by measuring the surface of the fiber with an energy dispersive X-ray analyzer. The present invention provides a fiber structure having high anti-adhesion property against aqueous soils and oily soils as well as soil release property by washing.

The present specification relates to a method for manufacturing a polarizer, the method including: a step of dyeing at least one dye of iodine and dichroic dyes on a polyvinyl alcohol-based film; a first cross-linking step of cross-linking the polyvinyl alcohol-based film and the dye by using a first aqueous solution including a polyvalent carboxylic acid compound and a boron compound; a second cross-linking step of cross-linking the polyvinyl alcohol-based film and the dye by using a second aqueous solution including a polyvalent carboxylic acid compound and a boron compound; and a third cross-linking step of cross-linking the polyvinyl alcohol-based film and the dye by using a third aqueous solution including a polyvalent carboxylic acid compound, in which in the first cross-linking step and the second cross-linking step, stretching is performed along with cross-linking, and a polarizer manufactured by using the same.
