摘要:
An apparatus for plugging honeycomb bodies includes a controller configured to signal a plugging actuator to move a plugging piston from the predetermined start position to an extended position while a shutter plate is in an open orientation, wherein at least about 50% of the predetermined volume of plugging material is discharged from a dispensing area during a single plugging cycle. The controller is still further configured to signal a control actuator of a plugging material control module to adjust a position of a control piston within a control chamber to maintain a pressure of the plugging material within the dispensing area from between greater than 0 psi to about 200 psi when the shutter plate is moved between a closed orientation and the open orientation at the beginning of the plugging cycle. Further examples include methods of plugging a honeycomb body with a plugging material control module.

Various embodiments provide methods of making ceramic articles and cold-set plugs for ceramic honeycomb bodies. The methods of making ceramic articles include providing a ceramic honeycomb body and applying an aqueous composition to the ceramic honeycomb body to form a cold-set plug. The aqueous composition includes a refractory filler, an inorganic binder, and an organic binder. The refractory filler includes particles having a d50 ranging from about 10 μm to about 40 μm, a d10 greater than about 2 μm, and a d90 less than about 110 μm. Embodiments also provide methods of making the cold-set plug that include preparing the aqueous composition and forming the cold-set plug by applying the composition to the ceramic honeycomb body.

A composition for applying to a honeycomb body includes a refractory filler, an organic binder, an inorganic binder, and a liquid vehicle, wherein the refractory filler, the particle size distribution of the refractory filler, the organic binder, and the inorganic binder are selected such that, when the composition is applied to plug a plurality of channels of the honeycomb body, the plug depth variability is reduced.
摘要:
A method of making a plugged honeycomb structure includes providing a honeycomb structure having a first end face and a second end face and an array of cells extending between the first end face and the second end face. The method includes bringing a first mask into contact with the first end face and injecting a plugging medium through the first flexible mask into at least some of the cells at the first end face. The method further includes removing the mask from the first end face, followed by contacting the first end face with a heated first solid body, wherein the plugging medium in the first end face is heated.
