A transparent conductive film includes a first transparent resin layer including a plurality of thin metallic wires, a second transparent resin layer containing a conductive polymer, and a third transparent resin layer provided between the first transparent resin layer and the second transparent resin layer. The second transparent resin layer contains a resin which is soluble in water, and the third transparent resin layer contains a resin which is insoluble in water or has water resistance. The third transparent resin layer can suppress mixing of the second transparent resin layer with the first transparent resin layer and can make the second transparent resin layer less likely to be damaged by the first transparent resin layer. Therefore, a surface of the second transparent resin layer is made smooth and electrical conductivity is made uniform.

A transparent conductive film (3) comprises a first transparent resin layer (8) having a plurality of thin metallic wires (7), a second transparent resin layer (9) comprising a conductive polymeric molecule, and a third transparent resin layer (10) provided between the first transparent resin layer (8) and the second transparent resin layer (9). The second transparent resin layer (9) contains a water soluble resin, and the third transparent resin layer (10) contains a water insoluble resin or a water resistant resin. Because of the presence of the third transparent resin layer (10), the second transparent resin layer (9) can be prevented from mixing with the first transparent resin layer (8), and there is hardly any damage to the second transparent resin layer (9) by the first transparent resin layer (8). Accordingly, the surface of the second transparent resin layer (9) can be smooth and can have a uniform conductive property.
