Abstract: A method for manufacturing a paper barrier base material includes a step of applying a water vapor barrier layer coating liquid that contains at least a water vapor barrier resin and a pigment onto a paper base material by a curtain coating method to form a water vapor barrier layer, and a step of applying a gas barrier layer coating liquid that contains at least one polymer selected from water-soluble polymers and water-dispersible polymers onto the water vapor barrier layer by a curtain coating method without a drying step interposed between the two steps to form a gas barrier layer. The gas barrier layer coating liquid has a B-type viscosity equal to or higher than a B-type viscosity of the water vapor barrier layer coating liquid. The method is intended to suppress the occurrence of coating unevenness in wet-on-wet coating by a curtain coating method.
