Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a new acetoacetic ester group-containing polyvinyl alcohol-based resin that contains less amount of water-insoluble matter and is excellent in transparency and viscosity stability when converted into an aqueous solution, and that realizes excellent water resistance by combined use of a crosslinking agent. The invention provides an acetoacetic ester group-containing polyvinyl alcohol-based resin containing a structural unit represented by the general formula (1): wherein at least one of R 1 and R 2 represents an acetoacetyl group, R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 and R 8 each independently represents an arbitrary substituent, and X represents a single bond or an arbitrary bonding chain.

wherein R 1 and R 2 each represents a hydrogen atom or an acetoacetyl group and at least one of R 1 and R 2 represents an acetoacetyl group, R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , x and R 8 each independently represents a hydrogen atom or an organic group, and X represents a single bond or a bonding chain.

2. The acetoacetic ester group-containing polyvinyl alcohol-based resin according to claim 1 , wherein R 1 is a hydrogen atom and R 2 is an acetoacetyl group in the formula (1).

3. The acetoacetic ester group-containing polyvinyl alcohol-based resin according to claim 1 , which is obtained by an acetoacetic esterification of a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin containing a structural unit represented by formula (3):

wherein R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , and R 8 each independently represents a hydrogen atom or an organic group, and X represents a single bond or a bonding chain.

4. The acetoacetic ester group-containing polyvinyl alcohol-based resin according to claim 3 , wherein the structural unit represented by formula (3) is obtained by a saponification of a copolymer of a vinyl ester-based monomer with a compound represented by formula (4):

wherein R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , and R 8 each independently represents a hydrogen atom or an organic group, X represents a single bond or a bonding chain, and R 9 and R 10 each independently represents a hydrogen atom or R 11 —CO— (where R 11 is an alkyl group).

5. The acetoacetic ester group-containing polyvinyl alcohol-based resin according to claim 3 , wherein the structural unit represented by formula (3) is obtained by a saponification and decarboxylation of a copolymer of a vinyl ester-based monomer with a compound represented by formula (5):
