The present disclosure relates to a battery cell tray, which is a tray configured to accommodate a plurality of cylinder type battery cells in a storage of a first packaging member, including a first tray member having a plate type structure in which a plurality of first recessed portions surrounding one side end portions of the battery cells are formed; and a second tray member having a plate type structure in which a plurality of second recessed portions surrounding the other side end portions facing the one side end portions of the battery cells are formed, and the first and second tray members includes a volatile rust inhibitor which is vaporized at room temperature to form a rust-proofing film on surfaces of the battery cells.

A ferrite composition having a formula of Ba.sub.xNi.sub.2-yCu.sub.yTi.sub.3Fe.sub.zO.sub.31, wherein 4.5?x?5.5 0<y<2 or 0.05?y?1.5, and 11?z?13.

The present disclosure relates to an antimicrobial coating on a surface, a method for preparing and uses of the same. In particular it relates to a process for preparing an antimicrobial coating on a surface, the process comprising the steps of: a) providing a surface; b) coating a metal oxide or a metal hydroxide on the surface in the presence of a solvent in a hydrothermal synthesis step to form a coated surface having a plurality of nanostructures; c) optionally drying the coated surface, wherein said nanostructure is preferably in nanopillar structure. The coating of the present application exhibits excellent antimicrobial activity against different types of microorganism, such as bacteria and yeast. The nanostructures are able to exert stress to the microorganism, and therefore controlling or killing them.

A polyamide resin composition with reduced radiation noise includes 50 to 66 wt % of polyamide 66, 30 to 40 wt % of glass fiber, and 3 to 5 wt % of a vibration-damping inorganic material, based on the entire resin composition. The vibration-damping inorganic material is selected from the group consisting of antimony oxide (Sb.sub.2O.sub.3), barium sulfate (BaSO.sub.4), zinc oxide (ZnO), zinc sulfide (ZnS), titanium dioxide (TiO.sub.2), and iron oxide (Fe.sub.2O.sub.3).

Coating formulations for improving hide and holdout without sacrificing adhesion on cementitious substrates are provided. The coating formulations can achieve high hide and holdout with a low pigment volume concentration by utilizing particles with pre-selected oil absorption and particle size range. The coating formulations can be used as a functional for fiber cement substrates. When applied in combination with a top coat, the functional provides provide high hide and hold and enhanced adhesion while reducing pigment loading.

Provided are a manufacturing method of a dispersion including a step A of preparing a mixture containing an edible pigment, an edible dispersant, and water, a step B of applying a hydrostatic pressure equal to or higher than 30 MPa to the mixture, and a step C of performing a dispersion treatment on the mixture to which the hydrostatic pressure is applied; a pigment dispersion for ink jet recording and a manufacturing method thereof; and an ink composition for an ink jet and a manufacturing method thereof.
