Disclosed is an oxygen-absorbable solvent-soluble resin having both oxygen absorbability and adhesive properties. Specifically disclosed is an oxygen-absorbable solvent-soluble resin which comprises an acid component (A), an acid component (B) and a polyester having a constituent unit derived from a glycol component, wherein the ratio of the amount of the acid component (A) to the total amount of the acid components is 40 to 80 mol % and the ratio of the amount of the acid component (B) to the total amount of the acid components is 15 to 35 mol %. The acid component (A):tetrahydrophthalic acid or a derivative thereof, or tetrahydrophthalic anhydride or a derivative thereof; and the acid component (B):terephthalic acid.

Oxygen-absorbable solvent-soluble resin and oxygen-absorbable adhesive resin composition

An oxygen-absorbing resin composition having excellent performance is provided which contains an oxygen-absorbing polyester and a polyolefin and has enhanced compatibility between the polymers to give an oxygen-absorbing layer inhibited from having a reduced cohesive force or an appearance failure such as roughness unevenness. The oxygen-absorbing resin composition is characterized by being obtained by melt-kneading the following ingredients (A) and (B) together with the following ingredient (C) as a compatibilizing agent. Ingredient (A): an oxygen-absorbing polyester; Ingredient (B): a polyolefin; and Ingredient (C): a copolymer of ethylene and a vinyl monomer having a hydroxy group or an ester bond, the copolymer having an ethylene proportion of 70-99 mol %.
