Abstract: An aqueous polymerizable monomer composition including an ?,?-unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer and a polyvalent metal ion in an amount sufficient to neutralize 10 to 90% of a carboxyl group of the ?,?-unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer in the form of a solution or dispersion in water in an amount of 20 to 85% by weight based on the whole amount of the composition, a gas barrier film including an ionically crosslinked polycarboxylic acid polymer film formed by subjecting a coating film of the aqueous polymerizable monomer composition to a polymerization treatment and having an oxygen transmission rate of at most 50×10?4 cm3(STP)/(m2·s·MPa) as measured under conditions of a temperature of 30° C. and a high relative humidity of 80%, and a production process of the film.

Abstract: A laminate having a layer structure that a carboxyl group-containing polymer layer (A) and a polyvalent metal compound-containing layer (B) are arranged adjacently to each other on at least one side of a polymeric base, wherein the polyvalent metal compound-containing layer (B) contains particles of a polyvalent metal compound, a binder resin and a surfactant, and a production process thereof.

Abstract: A gas barrier film, comprising a mixture-deposited layer made of a metal and a metal oxide, provided on at least one surface of a polymer film substrate, and characterized in that, where the integration values of the XPS spectrums of the metal and the metal oxide of the above mixture-deposited layer are defined as SMe and SMeO, respectively, the value of the integration value ratio (SMeO/SMe) in the above mixture-deposited layer is 1.5 to 100, and that a resin layer formed using a polycarboxylate-based solution is laminated on at least one surface of the mixture-deposited layer.
