Abstract:
A thermally shock resistant ceramic body, such as a porous ceramic honeycomb structure for a wall flow diesel engine exhaust filter or a flow-through ceramic catalyst support, is formed of a composite ceramic material comprising a major first ceramic phase exhibiting good thermal shock resistance and a minor second phase material that substantially reduces the elastic modulus of the composite ceramic material at elevated temperatures.

Abstract:
The invention relates to opaque, colored glass ceramic articles and to the production of opaque, colored glass-ceramic articles which can be readily formed to a desired shape using standard metal-working tools. The glass-ceramic material used to make such articles contains mica crystals as the predominant phase. The desired color is obtained through the addition of a colorant system to the precursor glass. In a particular embodiment the invention is directed to a black glass ceramic article, the black color being obtained by the addition of iron oxides in levels as high as 20 wt%, which can yield a glass ceramic having an iron rice mica phase and/or a glass ceramic having an iron rich mica phase plus an iron oxide phase.

Abstract:
Geopolymer composite materials having low coefficient of thermal expansion are disclosed. The materials are useful in high temperature applications due to their low coefficient of thermal expansion and high strength. Also disclosed is a boron modified water glass geopolymer composition that is compatible with ceramic particulate material such as cordierite and fused silica. The geopolymer composite may be extruded to form structures such as honeycomb monoliths, flow filters or used as a plugging or skinning cement and may be fired at temperatures at or below 1100°C. Both the structures and the cement have high green and fired strength, a low coefficient of thermal expansion, and good acid durability. The cost of manufacturing objects using the material of the present invention is substantially reduced, in comparison with typically production methods of cordierite based bodies, due to the substantially shortened firing times.
