An ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer having an ethylene unit content of 1 mol% to less than 20 mol%, an average degree of polymerization of 200 to 5000, and a degree of saponification of 80 to 99.7 mol% of ethylene-ethylene Alcohol copolymers, in which the ethylene units in the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer have a block characteristic of 0.90 to 0.99. Such an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer is excellent in high-speed coating property and water-resistant adhesiveness especially when it is used as an adhesive. |
