Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a honeycomb structure having a low pressure loss and a high strength includes preparing a material composition containing a silicon carbide powder, a binder and an additive; molding the material composition to manufacture a pillar-shaped honeycomb body molded having cells disposed in parallel with one another and in a longitudinal direction; carrying out a degreasing treatment on the honeycomb molded; and carrying out a firing treatment on the honeycomb degreased body to manufacture a honeycomb fired body. The silicon carbide powder of the material composition contains a silicon carbide coarse powder and a silicon carbide fine powder having an average particle diameter (D50) smaller than that of the silicon carbide coarse powder, and the additive contains a metal oxide power. An amount of the metal oxide powder in the material composition is in the range of about 0.8 to about 4.0% by weight.
Abstract:
A material for a silicon carbide fired body is manufactured by wet mixing at least a silicon carbide powder and an iron compound powder. A honeycomb structure is manufactured by molding a raw material composition containing the material for a silicon carbide fired body and an additive to manufacture a honeycomb molded body which has cell walls extending along a longitudinal direction of the honeycomb molded body to define a plurality of cells extending along the longitudinal direction. The honeycomb molded body is degreased to manufacture a honeycomb degreased body. The honeycomb degreased body is fired to manufacture a honeycomb structure including a honeycomb fired body.
Abstract:
A jig for firing a silicon carbide based material of the present invention is a jig for firing a silicon carbide based material, which is used for placing a silicon carbide based molded body thereon upon firing of the silicon carbide based molded body, wherein a SiO source layer is formed on at least a part of the surface of the jig for firing a silicon carbide based material.
Abstract:
A transporting apparatus of the present invention comprises a storage unit for temporarily storing a wet mixture and a transporting unit equipped with a conveyor for transporting the wet mixture.
