Abstract

The present invention provides a resin composition which comprises: (A) a saponifed ethylene-vinyl ester copolymer; (B) a rubber-like graft polymer; and (C) a polyalkylene ether unit-containing polymer. The inventive resin composition, which employs the saponfied ethylene-vinyl ester copolymer, is excellent in impact resistance.

Claims (15)

1. A resin composition comprising:

(A) a saponified ethylene-vinyl ester copolymer having an ethylene content of 20 to 60 mol %;

(B) a rubber-like graft polymer; and

(C) a polyalkylene ether unit-containing polymer,

wherein a weight ratio (B/C) between the rubber-like graft polymer (B) and the polyalkylene ether unit-containing polymer (C) is 0.1 to 10.

2. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polyalkylene ether unit-containing polymer (C) is a polyester-polyether block copolymer.

3. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polyalkylene ether unit-containing polymer (C) contains a carboxyl group.

4. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein a weight ratio (A/B) between the saponified ethylene-vinyl ester copolymer (A) and the rubber-like graft polymer (B) is 70/30 to 99/1.

5. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein a weight ratio (A/C) between the saponifed ethylene-vinyl ester copolymer (A) and the polyalkylene ether unit-containing polymer (C) is 70/30 to 99/1.

6. The resin composition according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber-like graft polymer (B) is a graft polymer prepared by graft-polymerizing 10 to 90 wt % of a vinyl monomer (B2) in the presence of 10 to 90 wt % of a rubber-like polymer (B1) based on a total amount of 100 wt % of the rubber-like polymer (B1) and the vinyl monomer (B2).

7. The resin composition according to claim 6 , wherein the rubber-like polymer (B1) has a glass transition temperature of not higher than 0° C.

8. The resin composition according to claim 1 , further comprising a glycidyl-group-containing (meth)acrylate polymer (D).

9. The resin composition according to claim 8 , wherein the glycidyl-group-containing (meth)acrylate polymer (D) has an epoxy equivalent of 50 to 5000 g/eq.

10. A multilayer structural body comprising at least one layer made of the resin composition according to claim 1 .

11. The multilayer structural body according to claim 10 , which has an overall thickness of 20 to 50000 μm.
