Abstract: OBJECT An object is to provide a resin composition capable of forming a crosslinked product that is excellent in hot water resistance and excellent in interlayer adhesiveness when formed into a multilayered structure. SOLUTION The resin composition contains an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (A) and a crosslinking agent (B) with the crosslinking agent (B) in an amount of 0.6 to 15 parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (A), the crosslinking agent (B) being a powder obtained by impregnating a porous body (BS) with a crosslinkable compound (BL) having three or more polymerizable groups and a melting point of no greater than 40° C.

Abstract: A silage film having at least one layer of a resin composition containing an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (A) and a hydroxy group-containing compound (B). In the resin composition containing the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (A) and the hydroxy group-containing compound (B), the hydroxy group-containing compound (B) has a molecular weight of less than or equal to 200, a ratio of number of hydroxy groups per molecule to the molecular weight ranging from 0.02 to 0.03, and a melting point of greater than or equal to 23° C., and a content of the hydroxy group-containing compound (B) in the resin composition ranging from 3% to 15% by mass. The silage film has excellent oxygen barrier property and stretchability (suitability for wrapping) and can be suitably used for long-term storage of silage.
