An object of the present invention is to provide a multilayer container excellent in hot water shape stability and transparency, and particularly useful for retort sterilization and boil sterilization. The saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer has a multilayer structure including a layer containing a saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, and is irradiated with 1 to 50 kGy of ionizing radiation. It is a preferred embodiment that the layer containing at least contains at least two saponified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers. |
