Summary: | A ceramic honeycomb wall-flow filter is prepared by plugging channels in a ceramic honeycomb comprised of clay by a method comprising the following. First, a mixture comprised of a dispersing liquid and ceramic powder is formed. Second, the mixture is inserted into at least one channel of a green ceramic honeycomb that is comprised of a clay to form a plugged green cerami c honeycomb wherein the dispersing liquid essentially fails to swell the clay. Alternatively, the mixture is inserted into a calcined ceramic honeycomb to form a plugged calcined ceramic honeycomb. Finally, the plugged green or calcined ceramic honeycomb is heated to a temperature sufficient to sinter t he plugged green ceramic honeycomb to form a porous sintered plugged ceramic honeycomb. The method is particularly useful for simultaneously making the plugs and discriminating layers in the channels. In particular the method is useful to make wall-flow filter having plugs on at least one end with same composition as the discriminating layer or plugs on each end having differen t compositions. |
