 EVOH can be regarded as EVA (ethylene—acetic acid ethylene ester copolymer) modified material. It has both ethylene polymer good process capability and vinyl alcohol polymer high gas obstruct capability. It is a new colorless, transparent obstruct material, with PVDC and PA, these three materials are the best barrier resin in the world. Its gas obstruct capability is 100 times higher than PA, 10000 times higher than PE,PP and ten times higher than PVDC which high obstruct material we used very often. In dry or relative humidity condition, its permeability is extremely low, but its gas barrier capability is 10 to 50 times or even more times higher than Nylon. EVOH has excellent transparency, glossiness, mechanical strength, retractility, abrasive resistance, freeze resistance and surface strength. It has the highest heat stability in all the barrier resins. It also has excellent oil resistance, organic solvent resistance and antistatic capability. It can regenerate and does not contain Chlorine and Dioxin,it is to be called green environmental production. According to the use of soft packaging, you must considered the material process capability and physics capability, to choose 10 to 20 times EVOH as the barrier layer, not only prevent oxygen and water vapor infiltrating into the content, but also chain up the aroma, fluid juice and the solvent of the content. Thus it solved the problem that the contents (liquid, gas) dissolved the compound water glue. In some areas, the EVOH has gradually replace the metallized film, aluminum foil and rigid container. It is being received various countries attention and shows the best potential growth trend in the market. Due to the oxhydryl in the molecular structure of EVOH resin, EVOH resin has the hydrophilia and hygroscopicity. When it adsorb the damp, its gas obstruct capability will be affected. So EVOH is used as the middle layer, usually coated with polyolefin. The damp quantity can be control aboratively, to use multilayers coated technic to packing EVOH resin (such as polyolefin).
