A heat-resistant metallic monolith manufactured by forming metal powders into a honeycomb structure and by sintering the structure, a heat-resistant metal oxide coated on the surface of the cell walls and that of the pores thereof. Such a heat-resistant metallic monolith is manufactured by mixing metal powders, an organic binder and water to prepare a mixture, by forming the mixture into a shape of a desired honeycomb configuration, by sintering the shape in a non-oxidizing atmosphere at a temperature between 1000.degree. and 145.degree. C. and then by coating a heat-resistant metal oxide on a surface of the cell walls and that of the pores of the obtained sintered body.
摘要:
In a catalytic converter operating method according to the present invention, a heater is energized at a predetermined power level or above and thereby heated substantially concurrently with the operation of an engine. During the heating, an oxidizing gas is introduced into the catalytic converter. When the temperature of the heater exceeds a value at which a main catalyst of the catalytic converter or light-off catalyst carried on the heater functions, the power level is reduced by an output adjuster and supply of the oxidizing gas is suspended.

A system for exhaust gas purification disposed in the exhaust pipe of an internal combustion engine, includes an adsorbent formed by loading, on a monolithic carrier, (1) a zeolite containing at least one kind of ion of an element having an electronegativity of 1.40 or more and (2) a catalyst material formed by loading at least one kind of noble metal selected from Pt, Pd and Rh on a heat-resistant inorganic oxide, and at least one loaded carrier formed by loading, on a monolithic carrier, a catalyst component having a purifiability for the harmful substances present in the exhaust gas emitted from the engine and/or an adsorbent component having an adsorptivity for the hydrocarbons also present in the exhaust gas, the loaded carrier being provided upstream of the adsorbent in the flow direction of the exhaust gas and having a total volume of 0.6 l or more. In this system for exhaust gas purification, the thermal deterioration of the adsorbent is reduced because there is used an adsorbent of higher HC desorption start temperature and because the thermal load applied to the adsorbent is decreased by the use of a particular means.

A continuous extrusion method of manufacturing ceramic honeycomb structures with the aid of a screw type vacuum extruding machine is disclosed. The method is characterized by making the temperature at the outer periphery of the ceramic raw material batch located in the rear of the extrusion die not lower than the temperature at the center portion of the batch.
摘要:
A catalyst for exhaust gas purification is capable of purifying the hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide present in the exhaust gas discharged from an internal combustion engine. The catalyst has a monolithic carrier and a catalyst layer containing Pd, Ba and a heat-resistant inorganic oxide, formed on the carrier. The amount of Pd supported on monolithic carrier is 100-300 g per ft3 of monolithic carrier (3.53×10−3 to 1.06×10−2 g per cc of monolithic carrier), the amount of Ba supported on monolithic carrier is 0.010-0.060 g per cc of monolithic carrier in terms of BaO, and the weight ratio of Pd and Ba as expressed as BaO is 1:2 to 1:10. This catalyst for exhaust gas purification is superior particularly in hydrocarbon purification for a low-temperature fuel-rich exhaust gas (such as exhaust gas emitted during cold start) of automobile.

摘要:
An extruding die for forming finned ceramic honeycomb structures includes extruding forming grooves for extruding a ceramic material therethrough and a plurality of material supply apertures for supplying the ceramic material into the extruding die. The extruding forming grooves open at a front surface of the extruding die and intersect with each other in the form of a mesh corresponding to a sectional configuration of a ceramic honeycomb structure. The material supply apertures open at a rear surface of the extruding die and communicate with the extruding forming grooves at intersecting zones thereof. The extruding die comprises fin forming grooves branched from the extruding forming grooves for forming fins, and the material supply apertures communicate with at least parts of the fin forming grooves. In extruding a ceramic material with this extruding die to form a ceramic honeycomb structure, it is easily formed uniform in density in its entirety including fins, thereby completely preventing the fins from falling off during extruding and preventing cracks from occurring in drying or firing.
