摘要:
There is disclosed a ceramic structure which comprises a material having a controlled pore distribution and including cordierite as the main crystal phase. In the pore distribution, the volume of pores having pore diameters smaller than 20 μm accounts for 15% or less of the total pore volume, and the volume of pores having pore diameters of 20 to 100 μm accounts for 70% or more of the total pore volume. This ceramic structure is suitable for realizing a ceramic catalyst body which has excellent purification efficiency, is reduced in pressure loss, and is mountable even in a limited space.

A process for producing a honeycomb structure by obtaining clay from a cordierite-forming raw material containing an alumina source, a silica source, and a magnesia source; and forming the clay into a honeycomb shape, wherein a material having, in its volume particle size distribution, a 50 volume % particle size (V50) [μm] of 1 to 25 μm is used, as each of alumina source, silica source, and magnesia source; and a material having, in the volume particle size distribution of the whole cordierite-forming raw material, a ratio of 90 volume % particle size (Vall90) [μm] to 10 volume % particle size (Vall10) [μm] [a volume particle size distribution ratio (Vall90/Vall10)] of 10 or less and a difference (Vall90−Vall10) between 90 volume % particle size (Vall90) [μm] and 10 volume % particle size (Vall10) [μm] of 25 μm or less is used, as the cordierite-forming raw material.

There is provided a method for manufacturing a porous ceramic structure, including: firing a formed body containing ceramic particles and a combustible powder functioning as a pore former, and burning off the combustible powder to obtain the porous ceramic structure. The combustible powder has an exothermic rate of 0 to 35 μV·min./mg, which is obtained from a differential thermal analysis. The method for manufacturing a porous ceramic structure can inhibit a crack from being generated during firing even without slowing down the temperature rise rate at the combustion range of the pore former or without lowering an oxygen content in the firing atmosphere.
摘要:
A process for producing a honeycomb structure includes: a mixing step where forming raw materials including a ceramic raw material are mixed to obtain a forming blended material, a kneading step where the forming blended material is kneaded to obtain kneaded clay, a forming step where the kneaded clay is formed into a honeycomb shape to obtain a honeycomb formed article, and a firing step where the honeycomb formed article is fired to obtain a honeycomb structure. The ceramic raw material is a cordierite forming raw material, and a magnetic powder contained in the kneaded clay is at a ratio of 400 ppm or less with respect to solid content conversion mass of the whole kneaded clay. There is provided a honeycomb structure capable of improving trapping efficiency, in particular, initial trapping efficiency by reducing the number of coarse pores in the partition walls.

There is provided a method for manufacturing a porous ceramic structure, including: firing a formed body containing ceramic particles and a combustible powder functioning as a pore former, and burning off the combustible powder to obtain the porous ceramic structure. As the combustible powder, porous resin particles having an average particle diameter of 10 to 50 μm and a porosity of 50 to 90% are used. The method for manufacturing a porous ceramic structure can inhibit the combustible powder functioning as a pore former from being smashed upon mixing/kneading a forming raw material and suppressing an excess heat generation upon firing and can manufacture a porous ceramic structure having a stable porosity with a good yield.
摘要:
A support plate for use in firing which has a main component of the crystal phase after firing being the same as that of an article to be sintered, and has a surface roughness (Ra) of the surface to be contacted with the article to be fired of 8 to 50 μm. A firing method using the above support plate is free from the breaking or chipping of cells of a honeycomb fired article as a product and also is free from the breaking thereof during firing, the staining or cells, the cracking or deformation thereof, or the failure of reaction, which is caused by the mismatch in expansion-shrinkage behavior, and thus allows the prevention of the decrease of the yield in the production of a honeycomb fired article as a product.

摘要:
An apparatus for treating the ends of elongated rod-like synthetic resin articles comprising a rotatable disk having circumferentially spaced slits in its periphery for receiving the articles at a feed station, moving them through a treating station and discharging them at a discharge station. A tool is located at said treating station for treating corresponding ends of said articles.

Provided is a taste-improving agent that suppresses the unpleasant taste of potassium, such as harshness, irritativeness, and bitterness without reducing the salty taste of a potassium-containing food or drink. The taste-improving agent for a potassium-containing food or drink comprises a lactic acid-fermented yeast extract that is obtainable by fermenting a yeast extract with a lactic acid bacterium and contains 7.5 (w/w) % or more of lactic acid relative to the solid content of the yeast extract.
