Provided are a gas-barrier film which is a laminate comprising a substrate
layer comprising a thermoplastic resin film and a gas-barrier layer
comprising a hydrolysate of a silicon alkoxide, a stratified silicate and
a polyvinyl alcohol base resin, wherein a radius (Rg) of gyration of a
scattering matter which is measured by light scattering in the
gas-barrier layer described above is 2.4 .mu.m or less, and the silicon
alkoxide and/or the hydrolysate thereof are present between the layers of
the stratified silicate present in the above gas-barrier layer. The above
film shows an excellent gas-barrier property even under such a high
humidity as exceeding 90% RH.
