Abstract: A storage rack includes a plurality of storage portions each configured to store a container. The container has a supported portion and an intake portion in a bottom surface of the container, the intake portion supplying gas into the container, wherein the center of gravity of the container is located between the supported portion and the intake portion as seen along a vertical direction. Provided to each of the storage portions are a container support in which a support surface is formed for supporting the supported portion from below, a nozzle configured to contact the intake portion from below to supply gas into the container through the intake portion, and a restriction member configured to contact a side surface of the container when stored on the storage portion to restrict movement of the container along a horizontal direction. The container is supported only by the support surface and the nozzle.

Abstract: A cationic electrodeposition coating composition comprising a cationic resin (A) and a blocked polyisocyanate (B) obtained by reaction between a polyisocyanate compound (b1) with two or more isocyanate groups, castor oil (b2) and a blocking agent (b3). The cationic electrodeposition coating composition has excellent throwing power, suitability for electrodeposition onto hot dip galvanized steel sheets, finished appearance and corrosion resistance.

Abstract: The present invention provides a pigment dispersion paste with improved storage stability, and an electrodeposition coating composition that enables energy saving in electrodeposition coating equipment and a reduction in the amount of electrodeposition coating equipment. The pigment dispersion paste of the present invention contains (i) a pigment-dispersing resin, (ii) a pigment component, (iii) a cellulose (A), (iv) a hydroxyalkyl imidazoline compound (B) and/or a compound (C), and (v) water; the pigment dispersion paste containing, per 100 parts by mass of the solids of the pigment-dispersing resin, 0.1 to 1,000 parts by mass of the pigment component, 0.1 to 25 parts by mass of the cellulose (A), 0.1 to 5 parts by mass of a hydroxyalkyl imidazoline compound (B) and/or 0.1 to 5 parts by mass of a compound (C); and the pigment dispersion paste having, when adjusted to a solids concentration of 40 mass %, an TI value of 1.8 to 4.
