The invention relates to the improvement on the
ceramic beehive catalyst carrier, especially providing a
ceramic beehive catalyst carrier with high
mechanical strength and lower expansion parameter and preparing method. The invention is characterized in that: said
beehive catalyst carrier is the
alumina micro
powder in 12-15%WT whose average particle
diameter is less than 2 micron; the sheet kaolin and / or clay micro
powder in 43-47% whose average particle
diameter is less than 2 micron, the sheet steatite micro
powder in 33-37% whose average particle
diameter is 5-15 micron, and the fuse
quartz in 6-12% whose average particle diameter is less than 2 micron to be mixed, molded and baked to attain the
cordierite whose total amount is 92-96%, wherein, the Al203, MgO and SiO2 are each in 36-37%, 13.0-14.0% and 50-52%. The invention adds surface
active agent in the mixture when in preparation. The prepared beehive
cordierite total amount with 600 hole / square inch can reach 92-96%, the expansion parameter can reach 0.8X10-6 / Deg. C (800Deg. C to
room temperature), and the factor of
porosity can reach 39-40%. The invention can reduce the ignition temperature 25-40Deg. C, and reduce the
tail gas
discharge of
nitrogen oxygen compound and
carbon monoxide of vehicle 5-10% to meet the demand of Europe III standard.
