Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080287283Catalyst body and methods - Disclosed are a catalyst and a catalyst body as defined herein and methods of use and manufacture.11-20-2008
20090142499Cement compositions for applying to ceramic honeycomb bodies - Disclosed are cement compositions for applying to honeycomb bodies. The cement compositions can be applied as a plugging cement composition, segment cement, or even as after applied artificial skins or coatings. The cement compositions generally include an inorganic powder batch mixture consisting essentially of inorganic particles having a particle size greater than 100 nm. The cement compositions can further include an organic binder, a liquid vehicle, and one or more optional processing aids. Also disclosed are honeycomb bodies having the disclosed cement compositions applied thereto and methods for making same.06-04-2009
20090143221Zeolite-Based Honeycomb Body - Zeolite-based honeycomb bodies and methods of manufacturing same. Zeolite-based honeycomb bodies especially suited for engine exhaust treatment applications include a primary phase comprising a zeolite having a SiO2 to Al2O3 molar ratio in the range from 5 to 300. The zeolite-based composites are porous with an open porosity of at least 25% and a median pore diameter of at least 1 micron. The zeolite-based honeycomb bodies can be manufactured by an extrusion method.06-04-2009
20090217648Exhaust treatment device having a reactive compound and conditioning the device via endothermic reaction - An exhaust treatment device and a method of conditioning the device that include a reactive compound capable of undergoing an endothermic reaction are described. A method of manufacturing the device is also disclosed.09-03-2009
20090286041Cement Compositions For Applying To Honeycomb Bodies - Disclosed are cement compositions for applying to honeycomb bodies as a plugging cement composition, segment cement, or even as an after-applied artificial skin or coating. The cement compositions generally comprise an inorganic powder batch mixture; an organic binder; a liquid vehicle; and a gelled inorganic binder. Also disclosed are honeycomb bodies having the disclosed cement compositions applied thereto, and methods for making same.11-19-2009
20100052197Method for Manufacturing Ceramic Honeycombs - Methods for making extruded ceramic products meeting set dimensional specifications comprise subjecting a small firing sample taken from a first unfired product preform to a rapid firing treatment to determine a value for firing shrinkage or growth, and then adjusting the dimensions of succeeding unfired preforms based on that value, e.g., by adjusting wet extruded product dimensions, so that the succeeding preforms will meet the set dimensional specifications.03-04-2010
20100052200Method For Porous Ceramic Honeycomb Shrinkage Reduction - A method for reducing shrinkage variability of ceramic honeycombs formed from batch mixtures including inorganic materials and a pore former. X is a cumulative amount of pore former particles having a diameter less than 37 μm. There is a maximum value of X (Xmax) and a minimum value of X (Xmin) during a production period, and ΔX=Xmax−Xmin. The method fixes an amount of pore former fines such that X ranges from 25%-71% by volume, and ΔX is ≦23% throughout the production period.03-04-2010
20100222200Aluminum Titanate-Containing Ceramic-Forming Batch Materials And Methods Using The Same - The present disclosure relates to aluminum titanate-containing ceramic-forming batch materials and methods using the same.09-02-2010
20100237007Cordierite Aluminum Magnesium Titanate Compositions And Ceramic Articles Comprising Same - Disclosed are ceramic bodies comprised of composite cordierite aluminum magnesium titanate ceramic compositions and methods for the manufacture of the same.09-23-2010
20100304957Zeolite-Based Honeycomb Body - Zeolite-based honeycomb bodies and methods of manufacturing same. Zeolite-based honeycomb bodies especially suited for engine exhaust treatment applications include a primary phase comprising a zeolite having a SiO2 to Al2O3 molar ratio in the range from 5 to 300. The zeolite-based composites are porous with an open porosity of at least 25% and a median pore diameter of at least 1 micron.
