Abstract: A molded article comprising of a molded resin product having a norbornane polymer skeleton coated with at least one layer of gas barrier resin having oxygen gas permeabilities of:i) under 10 cc/m.sup.2 .multidot.24 hrs.multidot.atm measured by the method of ASTM D1434, except atmospheric conditions in which a film of the layer of gas barrier resin is maintained before measurement at 20.degree. C. and 0% relative humidity, andii) under 50 cc/m.sup.2 .multidot.24 hrs.multidot.atm measured by the method of ASTM D1434, except with atmospheric conditions in which a film of the layer of gas barrier resin is maintained before measurement at 20.degree. C. and 100% relative humidity. The coated resin product provides novel materials for production of optical articles such as liquid crystal displays, optical fibers, various optical lenses such as lenses for lamps for automobiles, studios, camcorders, containers for medical drugs, medical appliances and food packaging materials and the like.
