Resin composition containing ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, molded product, and multilayer structure

Abstract

A resin composition according to an aspect of the present invention comprises: an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (A); and a block copolymer (B) having a block (b1) that includes a vinyl aromatic monomer unit, and a block (b2) that includes an isobutylene unit, wherein the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (A) and the block copolymer (B) form a co-continuous phase structure; and a DSC curve obtained following heating the resin composition up to a melting point and cooling at a rate of 50° C./min in a differential scanning calorimetry analysis shows two peaks, with a higher peak top temperature falling within a range of 130° C. or greater and 170° C. or less, and a lower peak top temperature falling within a range of 100° C. or greater and less than 130° C. A resin composition may thus be obtained that is able to give a molded article that is superior in balance between gas barrier properties and flexibility.
