Abstract: In order to solve various problems such as a reduction in a paint resin with the progress of electrodeposition coating treatment and remelting of a coating film or the occurrence of pinholes caused by an increased concentration of an electrolyte as a result of the reduction, upsizing of a hollow electrode with a membrane for electrodeposition coating combined with a barrier membrane (e.g., an ion exchange membrane) and an increase in the number of components should be avoided. In order to realize this, a barrier membrane 20 such as an ion exchange membrane is attached to the exterior surface of an electrode main body 10, which is in a hollow state made of a conductive material and configured so as to allow a liquid to pass through freely between the inside and outside of the electrode serving as a support.

Abstract: A polymer electrolyte composition characterized by comprising: (1) a crosslinked material of a polyether binary copolymer which has a main chain comprising repeating units represented by the formula (i) and crosslinking units represented by the formula (ii) and which has a weight-average molecular weight of 104 to 107, (2) an electrolyte solution comprising an aprotic organic solvent, (3) an additive, as an optical ingredient, which comprises an ether compound having an ethylene oxide unit, and (4) an electrolyte salt compound comprising a lithium salt compound. The composition is excellent in liquid retention and ionic conductivity, is usable in a wide temperature range, and has excellent electrochemical properties.
