Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a cationic electrodeposition coating composition which is free of toxic rust-preventive pigments such as lead compounds and capable of giving coating films having high resistance to corrosion and rusting, even when applied to a substrate surface which is only insufficiently subjected, to a chemical conversion treatment. The present invention provides a cationic electrodeposition coating composition which comprises a rust inhibitor comprising at least one compound selected from the group consisting of compounds containing any of elemental metals belonging to the period 4, 5 or 6 of group 3 of the periodic table and a sulfonium- and propargyl group-containing resin composition. For, example, the content of said rust inhibitor is 0.03 to 10 weight parts in terms of the elemental metal in the rust inhibitor based on 100 weight parts of the solid resins in the resin composition.

Abstract: Disclosed is a corrosion preventive pigment consisting essentially of(a) a phosphorus compound which generates phosphate ions in the presence of water and oxygen, selected from the group consisting of a phosphorous pentoxide, an orthophosphoric acid, a condensed phosphoric acid, and alkaline earth metal or transition metal phosphate, or an alkaline earth metal or transition metal condensed phosphate, and(b) a vanadium compound which generates a vanadate ion in the presence of water and oxygen, selected from the group consisting of vanadium (V) oxide, a vanadyl compound, an alkaline earth metal or transition metal vanadate, a baked condensate of alkaline earth metal or transition metal vanadates, or a heterocondensate of alkaline earth metal or transition metal vanadates;and which has a pH value of from 5 to 9.

Abstract: Disclosed is a metal particle having a maximum dimension of not more than 1 mm surface-treated with an aqueous solution containing phosphate ions, soluble ions of vanadium and oxygen. This particle can be a metallic pigment having excellent brightness retention and wetting properties to a binder resin.

Abstract: A process for preparing a graft polymer by subjecting a cyclic ester to ring-opening polymerization in the presence of a cellulose derivative in the presence of a ring-opening polymerization catalyst for the cyclic ester. The resulting graft polymer has high transparency, good film-formability and high solubility and can be suitably used as a novel polymer material.

Abstract: Novel cellulose ester derivatives having good solubility which are useful for coating agent, thickening agent, protective colloid, etc.; and a method for the preparation of said cellulose ester derivatives wherein cellulose is reacted with a specific lactone such as glycolide, lactide or .epsilon.-caprolactone in a solvent and in the presence of a catalyst for esterification.
