  • Process for producing vinyl alcohol polymer compositions
    Patent number: 6596807
    Abstract: A vinyl alcohol polymer composition (II) is produced by a process of providing a reaction liquid comprising a solution containing a vinyl carboxylate polymer and, a first metal alkoxide (I) having at least one functional group and/or an oligomer (I) having at least one functional group obtained from said metal alkoxide (I); a step of simultaneously effecting (a) saponification of said vinyl carboxylate polymer and (b) reaction in which at least part of the functional groups of said metal alkoxide (I) and/or said oligomer (I) participates, thereby obtaining a vinyl alcohol polymer composition (I); and a step of preparing a solution (A) containing said vinyl alcohol polymer composition (I), followed by adding to the solution (A) a second metal alkoxide (II) and/or an oligomer (II) obtained from the metal alkoxide (II) or another solution (B) containing the metal alkoxide (II) and/or the oligomer (II) derived from the metal alkoxide (II), to prepare an intermediate product solution (C), and then removing the sol
