摘要:
In connection with drawing a fiber in a drawing portion of a drawing device having a refractory, oxide component, a method and apparatus provide an environment in the drawing portion that causes active oxidation of a refractory contaminant on a blank. The active oxidation of the refractory contaminant causes it to corrode away during drawing.
摘要:
An apparatus and method to passivate porous ceramic articles containing microcracks as described herein. The method includes circulating a fluid including a passivator through the porous ceramic article and depositing at least a portion of the passivator on the porous ceramic article.
摘要:
Ceramic structures such as catalyst supports or combustion exhaust filters that incorporate combinations of high temperature phase change materials, and methods for determining the thermal history of such ceramic structures, by disposing the phase change materials on or within the structures and subsequently detecting the presence or absence of phase changes in the materials after exposure to high temperatures.
摘要:
Porous, non-microcracked cordierite ceramic bodies having high strength, high strain tolerance, and high thermal shock resistance are produced from cordierite powder batch mixtures of controlled powder particle size fired according to a schedule that prevents objectionable cordierite grain growth, maintaining a small cordierite crystalline domain size in order to minimize or prevent microcracking in the product.
摘要:
A diesel particulate filter comprising a plugged, wall-flow honeycomb filter body composed of cordierite and having a plurality of parallel end-plugged cell channels traversing the body from a frontal inlet end to an outlet end thereof, wherein the filter exhibits a CTE (25–800° C.) of less than 13×10−7/° C., a bulk filter density of less than 0.60 g/cm3, a median pore diameter, d50, of less than 25 micrometers, a porosity and pore size distribution that satisfy the relationship Pm≦3.75, wherein Pm is equal to 10.2474{1/[(d50)2(% porosity/100)]}+0.0366183(d90)−0.00040119(d90)2+0.468815(100/% porosity)2+0.0297715(d50)+1.61639(d50−d10)/d50, wherein d10, and d90 are pore diameters at 10% and 90% of the pore size distribution on a volumetric basis, and d10
摘要:
A method of protecting metal bodies, such as components of a thermal cracking furnace, against formation of carbon deposits, and the furnace components so protected, the method comprising producing an adherent, seamless coat on the metal surface, the coating comprising a layer of combined metal oxides within the MgO.Cr2O3 system.
摘要:
An activated carbon catalyst having sulfur dispersed homogeneously thereon, the sulfur being chemically bonded to the activated carbon. A method of making the catalyst involves forming an intimate mixture of a synthetic carbon precursor and a sulfur-containing material, curing the carbon precursor, carbonizing the carbon precursor, activating the carbonized carbon precursor to produce an activated carbon catalyst having sulfur chemically bonded to said activated carbon and uniformly dispersed thereon.
