A hydrophilic composition containing (A) a hydrophilic polymer having a structural unit represented by the following formula (I-b) and having a functional group represented by the following formula (I-a) at a terminal end of the polymer chain, and (B) an alkoxide compound containing an element selected from Si, Ti, Zr and Al, and a hydrophilic member having a hydrophilic film formed, on a substrate, by forming a film of the hydrophilic composition and heating and drying the same. Formula (I-a) Formula (I-b) n In the formulae, R 1 to R 4 each represent a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group having 8 or less carbon atoms; m represents 0, 1, or 2; Y represents a bivalent connection group having, for example, —CO 2 — or —NHCO—; L represents a single bond n nor an n-valent organic connection group; n represents an integer of 1 to 4; and A represents a hydrophilic group. |
