EVOH extractant, EVOH extraction method using the same, EVOH recovery method, and EVOH extractant regeneration method

Abstract

Provided is an EVOH extractant capable of efficiently extracting EVOH from an EVOH layer-containing multilayer resin molded body. Provided is a method for efficiently extracting and recovering EVOH from an EVOH layer-containing multilayer resin molded body. An EVOH extractant including a polar solvent having an SP value of 9 to 13 and a quaternary ammonium salt. An EVOH extraction method for extracting EVOH, including applying the EVOH extractant described above to an EVOH layer-containing multilayer resin molded body. An EVOH recovery method including a step of mixing a solution containing EVOH that has been extracted by the EVOH extraction method described above with water and/or a lower alcohol to deposit EVOH, followed by filtration or centrifugation.
