Problems solved by technology

Although mullite is known to be chemically resistant to diesel exhaust, the presence of a glassy silica phase is undesirable due to its high chemical reactivity to trace components of the exhaust
In addition, although the mullite phase has a high melting point, its thermal conductivity is relatively poor
The glassy phase has poor thermal stability due to its low melting point

[0116] Preparation of raw materials:

[0117] For the application of the present invention, the solid mineral compounds (andalusite, alumina, titania, graphite, mullite, tialite, etc.) use. Corresponding preparations are commercially available and known to those skilled in the art. For example, powdered andalusite having a particle size range suitable for the present invention is available under the trade name (Damrec), powdered graphite having a particle size range suitable for the present invention can be obtained under the trade name (Timcal), powdered alumina and alumina dispersions are available from Degussa, and powdered titania and titania dispersions are available from Millennium Chemicals. Selected cuts of commercially available materials may, if desired, be obtained by techniques known in the art, such as fractionation techniques (eg, sieving).

[0118] Alternatively, mullite and tialite can be prepared by reacting appropriate mineral precursor compounds at ele...

Abstract

The invention relates to ceramic honeycomb structures comprising a mullite phase and a tialite phase, and methods for manufacturing these honeycomb structures. The invention also relates to the use of andalusite for the manufacture of a ceramic honeycomb structure, as well as to the ceramic honeycomb structures containing andalusite, and to the methods for manufacturing these ceramic honeycomb structures.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to ceramic honeycomb structures comprising a mullite phase and a tialite phase, methods of making these honeycomb structures and applications of these structures. [0002] The present invention also relates to the use of andalusite in the manufacture of ceramic honeycomb structures, as well as ceramic honeycomb structures containing andalusite and methods of making these ceramic honeycomb structures. Background technique [0003] Ceramic honeycomb structures are well known in the art of making filters for liquid and gaseous media. Today, however, the most relevant application is the use of said ceramic bodies as particle filters for removing fine particles (diesel particulates) from the exhaust gases of diesel engines of vehicles, since these particles have been shown to have adverse effects on human health. [0004] Several ceramic materials have been described for the fabrication of ceramic honeycomb filters suitable fo...
