Abstract
Abstract A process, and the product thereof, is provided for the manufacture of an interpolymer having a high resistance to chemical attack and a low gas and water vapour permeability, the interpolymer consisting essentially of an unsaturated nitrile, a monovinylidene aromatic compound and an alphaolefin. Also provided are foods, beverages and medicines contained in packages of the interpolymer.
