摘要:
The present invention aims to provide a honeycomb structural body which is high in mechanical strength, has no cracks even when a thermal stress is generated, is less susceptible to generation of cracks or damage and is excellent in durability even in the case where a high pressure is applied from an outer peripheral face thereof, and is excellent in push-out strength. The honeycomb structural body of the present invention is a honeycomb structural body which has irregularities formed on an outer peripheral face thereof and that of a ceramic block, wherein when a least square curve is determined by a least square method on the basis of points constituting the contour of a cross-section perpendicular to the length direction of the honeycomb structural body, a center-of-gravity thereof is defined as c1, a distance between a minimum concentric circumscribed curve, having c1 as the center-of-gravity, of the least square curve and the center-of-gravity c1 is defined as D1, a distance between a maximum concentric inscribed curve, having c1 as the center-of-gravity, of the least square curve and the center-of-gravity c1 is defined as D2, and (D1 - D2) is defined as M1, the following inequality is satisfied: 0.3 mm ‰¤ M1, and when a least square curve is determined by a least square method on the basis of points constituting the contour of a cross-section perpendicular to the length direction of the ceramic block, a center-of-gravity thereof is defined as c2, a distance between a minimum concentric circumscribed curve, having c2 as the center-of-gravity, of the least square curve and the center-of-gravity c2 is defined as D3, a distance between a maximum concentric inscribed curve, having c2 as the center-of-gravity, of the least square curve and the center-of-gravity c2 is defined as D4, and (D3 - D4) is defined as M2, the following inequality is satisfied: 0.5 mm ‰¤ M2 ‰¤ 7.0 mm.

An exhaust gas-purifying honeycomb filter having excellent efficiency of recovering particulates collected is provided. A honeycomb structure body is formed by assembling one or more of column-like porous ceramic members in each of which a large number of through-holes are arranged in the longitudinal direction and either end of each through-hole is sealed. A porous ceramic member is a composite body made from ceramic particles and silicon. A catalyst is carried on a wall portion. The opening ratio alpha (%) of the honeycomb structure body and the amount beta (g/L) carried of the catalyst have a relation of the following expression: 9.8 - 0.125 x alpha
摘要:
An exhaust gas purifying device using a honeycomb structure body used as a filter for collecting particulates in an exhaust gas discharged from an internal combustion engine such as a diesel engine or used as a carrier of a catalyst for purifying the exhaust gas. The honeycomb structure body is constructed by using a composite material formed from ceramic particles and crystalline silicon. Particulates etc. collected by the honeycomb structure body are burnt in the temperature range of 250 to 800°C and removed. Accordingly, even when there is distribution of relatively low temperatures or when long term cold cycles are repeated, thermal stress is restricted from accumulating and cracks are prevented from occurring, resulting in improvement of thermal shock resistance.
摘要:
A honeycomb structural body is constituted with a ceramic block made by arranging a plurality of through-holes side by side in the longitudinal direction through partition walls and sealing either one end portions of these through-holes. The ceramic block of this honeycomb structural body is made of a composite member consisting of ceramic particles and amorphous silicon, so that the honeycomb structural body has an excellent compression strength even if its porosity is increased, and is less in the lowering of mechanical strength even if it is heated to a high temperature, and is excellent in the durability.
