摘要:
The invention describes a high porosity ceramic article and method of manufacturing the same and intermediate dried honeycomb green body articles. The article may have a total porosity of at least about fifty-five percent, above sixty percent, or even above sixty-five percent. The method of manufacture includes mixing a ceramic-forming powder, an organic pore former, water, and a crosslinker. Drying causes a condensation reaction between the pore former and the crosslinker thereby forming a network within the green body that strengthens the green body and reduces cracking. The pore former may include starch or an activated cellulose compounds. Secondary pore forming agents, such as graphite may also be included.

摘要:
Disclosed are ceramic articles, which in one aspect are composed predominately of a cordierite having a composition close to that of Mg2Al4Si5O18. The ceramic articles possess a microstructure characterized by a unique combination of relatively high porosity and relatively narrow pore size distribution, both as measured by mercury porosimetry, that render the ceramic structure useful for ceramic filter applications requiring high thermal durability and high filtration efficiency coupled with low pressure drop along the length of the filter. Such ceramic bodies are particularly well suited for filtration applications, such as diesel exhaust filters or DPFs. Also disclosed are methods for the manufacture of the ceramic articles described herein.
摘要:
A ceramic forming batch mixture including inorganic batch materials, such as sources of alumina, titania, and silica, a pore former combination including first and second pore formers with different compositions; an organic binder; and a solvent. Also disclosed is a method for producing a ceramic article involving mixing the inorganic batch materials with the pore former combination having first and second pore formers of different composition, adding an organic binder and a solvent, forming a green body; and firing the green body. A green body having a combination of first and second pore formers with different compositions is disclosed, as are several methods for firing to produce ceramic articles such as aluminum titanate.

摘要:
Cordierite ceramic articles with high volume percent porosities of at least 64% but less than 80% have controlled median pore sizes and mean coefficients of thermal expansion that impart substantially improved modulus of rupture strengths (MOR) and thermal shock resistance (TSR) to the ceramic articles.

摘要:
A porous ceramic honeycomb filter manufactured from an oxide-based ceramic material having a pore size distribution with d1≧7.0 microns. Preferably, the oxide-based material is cordierite or aluminum titanate. Alternatively, the filter contains a cordierite-containing ceramic body with a narrow pore size distribution with db≦1.00, wherein db=(d90−d10)/d50. Also disclosed is a batch mixture, method and honeycomb green body made from mixture of inorganic source materials selected from the group of magnesia sources, alumina sources, and silica sources, and a pore former having a narrow particle size distribution with dps≦0.90, wherein dps={(dp90−dp10)/dp50}. The pore former is preferably selected from a group consisting of canna starch, sago palm starch, green mung bean starch, and single-mode potato starch.

摘要:
Porous ceramic honeycomb articles for use as particulate filters and processes for making the same are described herein. The porous ceramic honeycomb articles include a fired cordierite body. The fired cordierite body has a microcrack parameter (Nb3) of about 0.05 to about 0.25 prior to exposure to a microcracking condition. After exposure to the microcracking condition, the fired cordierite body has a microcrack parameter (Nb3) at least 20% greater than the microcrack parameter prior to exposure to the microcracking condition. The fired cordierite body has a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of about 7.0×10−7/° C. to about 15.0×10−7/° C. over from about 25° C. to about 800° C. prior to exposure to the microcracking condition and a coefficient of thermal expansion of about 1.0×10−7/° C. to about 10.0×10−7/° C. over from about 25° C. to about 800° C. after exposure to the microcracking condition. The microcrack parameter may include a thermal cycle or a chemical treatment.
