| 20100266462 | Exhaust Gas Treatment Device - A flexible and substantially crack resistant intumescent, non-intumescent, or hybrid mounting mat material for use in mounting fragile structures includes at least one intumescent, non-intumescent or hybrid layer containing inorganic fibers and reinforcing layer applied to the layer. Also provided is an exhaust gas treatment device including a housing, a fragile catalyst support structure mounted within the housing, and the crack resistant mounting mat disposed in a gap between the housing and the fragile catalyst support structure. Also disclosed are methods of making a mounting mat for an exhaust gas treatment device and for making an exhaust gas treatment device incorporating the mounting mat. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20110097246 | Low Shear Mounting Mat for Pollution Control Devices - A mounting mat for an exhaust gas treatment device including high temperature resistant ceramic fibers containing alumina and/or high temperature resistant biosoluble inorganic fibers, organic binder which at least partially liquefies at elevated temperature prior to binder burnout, colloidal inorganic oxide and optionally intumescent material. The exhaust gas treatment device includes a housing, a fragile catalyst support structure resiliently mounted within the housing, and the mounting mat disposed in a gap between the housing and the fragile catalyst support structure. | 04-28-2011 |
| 20110123417 | EXHAUST GAS TREATMENT DEVICE - A device for treatment of exhaust gases includes a housing, a fragile structure resiliently mounted within the housing, and a non-intumescent mounting mat disposed in a gap between the housing and the fragile structure. The mounting mat includes a plurality of inorganic fibers that have undergone a surface treatment to increase the holding force performance of the mounting mat. Also disclosed are methods of making a mounting mat for an exhaust gas treatment device and for making an exhaust gas treatment device incorporating the mounting mat. | 05-26-2011 |
| 20110126499 | Multiple Layer Mat and Exhaust Gas Treatment Device - A hybrid mounting mat for mounting a catalyst support structure within a housing in an exhaust gas treatment device. The exhaust gas treatment device includes an outer housing, a fragile catalyst support structure, and a mounting mat disposed in the gap between the housing and the fragile catalyst support structure. Additionally disclosed are methods of making the hybrid mounting mat and for making an exhaust gas treatment device incorporating the mounting mat. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110150715 | Multilayer Mounting Mat for Pollution Control Devices - A multilayer mounting mat for an exhaust gas treatment device including high temperature resistant inorganic fibers, optionally organic binder, and optionally intumescent material. A plurality of the mounting mat plies contain a substantial proportion of the inorganic fibers oriented in the x-y plane of the mounting mat. An exhaust gas treatment device includes a housing, a fragile catalyst support structure resiliently mounted within the housing, and the multilayer mounting mat disposed in a gap between the housing and the fragile catalyst support structure. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110150717 | MOUNTING MAT FOR EXHAUST GAS TREATMENT DEVICE - A mounting mat for an exhaust gas treatment device includes a wet laid sheet of polycrystalline inorganic fibers that have been physically entangled while the wet laid sheet is still in a wet condition. The exhaust gas treatment device includes a housing, a fragile catalyst support structure resiliently mounted within the housing, and the mounting mat disposed in a gap between the housing and the fragile structure. Additionally disclosed are methods of making a mounting mat for an exhaust gas treatment device and for making an exhaust gas treatment device incorporating the mounting mat. | 06-23-2011 |
