Abstract: A compatibilizer contains a polymer (A) obtained by reacting a modified olefin-based polymer (a-1) with a polymer (a-2) containing a terminal functional group, wherein the modified olefin-based polymer (a-1) is a polymer modified with from 0.01 to 2 mass % of unsaturated carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof, and the polymer (a-2) is a ring opening polymer or condensation polymer containing a terminal functional group, capable of reacting with the modified olefin-based polymer (a-1), at both ends or one end thereof and has a number average molecular weight from 1,500 to 100,000. This provides an excellent compatibilizer. Particularly, upon melt processing a recovery of a multilayer structure including an EVOH layer and a thermoplastic resin layer, a recycling agent is provided that gives sufficient improvement effects to any of the adhesion of a degraded resin to a screw of a molding machine, the generation of die build-up, the generation of fish eyes, and the decrease in transparency.

Abstract: A multilayer structure having a layer of an adhesive resin composition (A) and a layer of another resin (B), wherein the adhesive resin composition (A) includes a thermoplastic resin (a1) containing functional groups of at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a boronic acid group and boron-containing groups capable of being converted into a boronic acid group in the presence of water, and a polyolefin (a2) which does not contain the functional groups, the blending weight ratio (a1/a2) of the thermoplastic resin (a1) to the polyolefin (a2) is 1/99 to 15/85, and particles of the thermoplastic resin (a1) are dispersed with an average particle diameter of 0.1 to 1.2 ?m in a matrix of the polyolefin (a2). Consequently, a multilayer structures having satisfactory interlayer adhesion strength can be provided even if the content of the resin having a special functional group in the adhesive resin composition layer is reduced.

Consequently, a multilayer structure can be provided that has a layer of a polypropylene and a layer of an EVOH and has good interlayer adhesion strength.

Abstract: This invention provides an adhesive resin having sufficient adhesion with a polar resin in any applications at normal temperature and applications for boiling and retort processing, a resin composition comprising the adhesive resin, and further a laminate with polyolefin/polar resin including the resin composition as an intermediate layer. An adhesive resin composition (A) for a polar resin is produced by mixing a resin having a carboxylic acid anhydride or derivative thereof component (a1) with a ring-opening polymer or condensation polymer component (a2) having a hydroxyl group or an amino group at both ends or at one end; or graft-reacting the (a2) component with the (a1) component, and wherein an amount of the (a1) component is such that an acid value of the adhesive resin composition (A) is from 0.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a resin composition suitable for adhering a layer of a base material, such as polyolefins, and a layer of a barrier resin, such as ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymers. The object is achieved by a resin composition (A) including: a thermoplastic resin (a1) having functional groups of at least one kind selected from the group consisting of a boronic acid group and boron-containing groups capable of being converted into a boronic acid group in the presence of water, a polyolefin (a2) not having the functional groups, and a thermoplastic elastomer (a3) not having the functional groups, wherein the thermoplastic resin (a1) is contained 1 to 20 parts by mass and the thermoplastic elastomer (a3) is contained 3 to 50 parts by mass in terms of 100 parts by mass of the polyolefin (a2).
