## Abstract

A modified polyolefin resin may be capable of obtaining an intended adhesion strength regardless of a kind of a base resin thereof even when graft modification is carried out by using an α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative having a cyclic structure. Such a modified polyolefin resin may be a modified product of a polyolefin resin and satisfying (A) and (B): (A): a modifying component includes an α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative having a cyclic structure; and (B): a ring-opening degree expressed by formula (1) is 40 or more: ring-opening degree=modification degree K×ring-opening rate R (1), wherein, in formula (1), the modification degree K is a grafting weight (% by weight) of the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative, and the ring-opening rate R is a ring-opening rate (%) of the cyclic structure in the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A modified polyolefin resin, which is a modified product of a polyolefin resin and satisfies (A) and (B):

(B): a ring-opening degree expressed by formula (1) is 40 or more,
Dro=Kmd×Rro (1),
wherein, in the formula (1), Dro is the ring-opening degree, Kmd is the modification degree K representing a grafting weight, in % by weight, of the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative (a1), and Rro is the ring-opening rate R which is a ring-opening rate (%) of the cyclic structure in the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative (a1), Rro being 80% or less.
