Title:
CORDIERITE FILTERS WITH REDUCED PRESSURE DROP
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005005794
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A diesel particulate filter comprising a plugged, wall-flow honeycomb filter body composed of cordierite and having a plurality of parallel end-plugged cell channels traversing the body from a frontal inlet end to an outlet end thereof, wherein the filter exhibits a CTE (25-800˚C) of less than 13x10<-7>/˚C, a bulk filter density of less than 0.60 g/cm<3>, a median pore diameter, d50, of less than 25 micrometers, a porosity and pore size distribution that satisfy the relationship Pm<=3.75, WHEREIN Pm is equal to 10.2474{1/[(d50)<2> (%porosity/100)]} + 0.0366183(d90) - 0.00040119(d90)<2> + 0.468815(100/%porosity)<2> + 0.0297715(d50) + 1.61639(d50-d10)/d50, wherein d10, and d90 are pore diameters at 10% and 90% of the pore size distribution on a volumetric basis, and d10 < D50 < D90. A method of making the same is also provided.
