A honeycomb body, which is composed in such a manner that a strip of corrugated foil made of heat-resistant stainless steel containing aluminum and a strip of flat foil made of stainless steel are alternately wound or laminated on each other, is incorporated into an outer cylinder made of metal and integrated into one body by means of diffusion bonding, so that a diffusion bonded metallic catalyst carrier can be formed. Surface roughness of the strip of foil after the completion of diffusion bonding is 0.001 to 2.0 μm when it is expressed by center line average height Ra, and no sintered bridges are formed at both end portions of the diffusion bonded section in the longitudinal direction. The catalyst carrier is manufactured in a condition so that λb, which is defined by λb=6.8×10−12×δf−1×F1/2×Ra−1/2×T1/4×exp(15000/T)×b1/2, can be in a range from 8 to 20 where thickness of the strip of foil is δf (m), average roughness of the foil surface is Ra (m), back tension in the case of winding is F (kgf), contact width of the piece of flat foil with the piece of corrugated foil is b (m), heat treatment temperature is T (K), and degree of vacuum is Pout (Pa), under the condition that 7.52×109×exp(−35000/T)≧8×Pout.

A metallic carrier for automobile exhaust gas purification made of thin metal foil includes a honeycomb unit composed of 8-25 &mgr;m thick corrugated metal foil and flat metal foil joined by solder joints not fewer than 70% of which have a thickness of at least 1.5 times and not greater than 4 times the foil thickness. A method of producing the metal carrier includes a step of forming a honeycomb unit in which 8-25 &mgr;m thick corrugated metal foil and flat metal foil are joined by solder joints using a solder powder, the solder powder having a particle diameter not greater than 4.5 times the thickness of the metal foil constituting the honeycomb unit.

According to the present invention, a strength of 120 to 200 kgf/mm.sup.2 in terms of 0.2% yield point and optionally a spring critical value of 55 to 150 kgf/mm.sup.2 are imparted to a high-strength stainless steel foil for corrugation by subjecting a thin sheet of a stainless steel comprising an alloy composed mainly of 10 to 40% by weight of Cr and 1 to 10% by weight of Al to final cold rolling and optionally subjecting the cold-rolled sheet to an aging treatment at a temperature in the range of from 80.degree. to 500.degree. C. after the completion of the final cold rolling. This enables corrugation to be effected at a high corrugation rate of 10 m/min or more.
摘要:
Use of a metallic material containing chromium as a substrate of an exhaust gas purifying catalyst has a problem that the chromium contained in the substrate migrates to a catalytically active component and reacts with the catalytically active component to reduce exhaust gas purification performance. Thus, a film which inhibits the chromium contained in the substrate from migrating is arranged on the substrate's surface. The film is desirably formed by oxidizing a substrate in the air. It is also desirable that a substrate containing aluminum therein be oxidized to cause aluminum contained in the substrate to separate out and thereby form an alpha-alumina film. The film is preferably such that, when the exhaust gas purifying catalyst is heated at 850° C. in the air for 300 hours, the amount of chromium migrated to the catalytically active component is controlled to 0.5 percent by weight or less based on the catalytically active component.

摘要:
A Cr trapping agent is disposed so that it contacts with constituting components of the substrate containing Cr. As the Cr trapping agent, an element or Ag is used, wherein the element is stronger in basicity than alkali metals or alkaline earth metals. Since the Cr trapping agent prevents transfer of Cr towards the alkali metals or alkaline earth metals, the reaction between Cr and alkali metals or alkaline earth metals is prevented.
