Ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer resin composition, film, and multilayer structure

Abstract

An ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer resin composition containing an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer and a metal compound satisfying the following general formula (1), as an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer resin composition having an excellent gas barrier property in the high humidity environment, particularly an excellent oxygen barrier property in the high humidity environment: Ma(OH)bAn−(2a-b)/n  (1) wherein M is a metal species, A is an anionic ligand having a valence of n− and excluding a hydroxy ligand and O (oxo ligand), n is an integer not less than 1, and a and b are each a number greater than zero and satisfy an expression a/b=0.1 to 10.
