Abstract

A biaxially oriented blow-molded container composed of a thermoplastic gas-barrier resin (resin B) and a thermoplastic resin (resin A) other than resin B and having excellent gas-barrier property and delamination strength. The container comprises a substantially non-oriented mouth portion composed of resin A, a portion composed of two layers of resin A and one layer of resin B which are laminated with the resin A layer and the resin B layer occurring alternately and a portion composed of three layers of resin A and two layers of resin B which are laminated with the resin A layer and the resin B layer occurring alternately. A portion having a small radius of curvature where delamination tends to occur is formed in a three-layer structure. A process for producing the container is also provided.
