Abstract: |
An improved oxygen barrier layer for coating a substrate, such as a polymeric film. The oxygen barrier is a layer of cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol and glyoxal, which exhibits improved barrier characteristics to the transmission of oxygen. The oxygen barrier is produced by coating a solution of polyvinyl alcohol, glyoxal and tensoactive agent onto at least one side of a substrate adapted for receipt of such solution. The polyvinyl alcohol is thereafter cross-linked in the absence of a catalyst to provide the oxygen barrier.

What is claimed is:
1. A method of providing an improved moisture-resistant oxygen barrier onto a surface of a substrate comprising:
- coating said surface of said substrate with a solution of poly(vinyl alcohol), glyoxal and a C4 to C10 alcohol, wherein said solution includes an amount of glyoxal sufficient to substantially 100% crosslink said poly(vinyl alcohol) and from about 5 ppm to about 0.5% by weight of said alcohol; and
- drying said coated substrate to substantially 100% crosslink said poly(vinyl alcohol) in the absence of a catalyst to provide said moisture-resistant oxygen barrier.
