Suitable examples include a method of spraying, a method of feeding EVOH (A) to an extruder, and a method of contacting the monofunctional epoxy compound (B) in the extruder. Among these, from the viewpoint of suppressing volatilization of the monovalent epoxy compound (B) to the outside of the system, after feeding EVOH (A) to the extruder, the monovalent epoxy compound (B ) is preferred.

Subsequently, a catalyst solution (D) prepared by dissolving 27.44 g (0.125 mol) of zinc acetate dihydrate and 15 g (0.1 mol) of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid in 500 g of water was added to the EVOH in the bag. The EVOH to which the catalyst solution had been added as described above was heated at 90° C. for 5 hours with the mouth of the bag closed while occasionally shaking to impregnate the EVOH with the catalyst solution (D). The obtained EVOH was vacuum-dried at 90° C. to obtain EVOH pellets containing zinc ions (F) and sulfonate ions.

- Modified EVOH (C) was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that Using the modified EVOH (C) thus obtained, a single layer film and a multilayer film were produced and evaluated in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are summarized in Tables 1-3.
- Comparative example 7 A modified EVOH (C) was obtained in the same manner as in Comparative Example 1, except that the catalyst solution (D) was added at a rate of 0.06 kg/hr. Using the modified EVOH (C) thus obtained, a single layer film and a multilayer film were produced and evaluated in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are summarized in Tables 1-3.
- Example 12 Provide of resin composition pellets Ethylene content 32 mol%, saponification degree 99.9 mol%, melt flow rate (190 ° C., under 2160 g load) 1.6 g / 10 minutes, melting point 183 ° C. Unmodified EVOH 80 parts by mass , and 20 parts by mass of the modified EVOH (C) obtained in Example 1 were dry-blended to obtain mixed pellets. Using a 30mm ⁇ twin-screw extruder (Japan Steel Works, Ltd.
- the mixed pellets are extruded and pelletized under the conditions of a barrel temperature of 200 ° C., a screw rotation speed of 300 rpm, and an extruded resin amount of 25 kg / hour. After that, hot air drying was performed at 80° C. for 16 hours to obtain resin composition pellets.
- the phosphoric acid compound content (in terms of phosphate root), acetic acid content and Na ion content (in terms of metal element) of the obtained resin composition were measured and found to be 40 ppm, 250 ppm and 160 ppm, respectively.
- the melt flow rate of the resin composition (190° C., under 2160 g load) was 1.9 g/10 minutes.
- Example 1(a) a monolayer film having a thickness of 25 ⁇ m was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1(a). Using the obtained single-layer film, the oxygen transmission rate was measured in the same manner as in Example 1 (b). showed sex.
- Young's modulus was 180 kgf/mm 2 .
- the monolayer film was conditioned in an atmosphere of 23° C. and 50% RH for 7 days, and then cut into strips with a width of 15 mm. Using this film sample, the tensile strength at yield and tensile elongation at break were measured with an Autograph AGS-H manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation under the conditions of a chuck interval of 50 mm and a tensile speed of 500 mm/min. Ten samples were measured, and the average value was obtained. The tensile strength at yield and tensile elongation at break were 6.5 kgf/mm 2 and 310%, respectively.
