Definitions
- the emission of harmful gases from the internal combustion engine is a serious world-wide problem requiring reduction of exhaust gas emissions by after-treatment with catalytic converters and/or particulate filters.
- the most common method of treating the gases and reducing the noxious content of the gases is to force the gases through a substrate that: 1. oxidises the gases 2. separates the particulate matter from the gas.
- the substrate thus acts as a Flow Through Catalyst carrier (FTC) or as a Wall Flow Filter (WFF). In both cases the harmful emission is reduced before the exhaust gas is released into the atmosphere.
- FTC Flow Through Catalyst carrier
- WFF Wall Flow Filter
- the most commonly used "type of diesel particulate filters is the extruded Wall Flow Filter since these filters combine good filtration efficiency and a large filtration area per unit volume.
- the WFF is manufactured by Corning Inc. in the USA under the registered trade name "CelCor”.
- filter materials such as corrugated mullite fibre mat from Panasonic (SAE paper 860010), coated Cordierite (Ceramem coating on Corning substrates) and ceramic foam (manufactured by Alusuisse-Lonza, SAE paper 910325) have also shown to have good properties as diesel particulate filters.
- a commonly used ceramic material for diesel filters or catalyst carriers is the low thermal expansion material Cordierite (Mg 2 Al 4 Si 5 0 18 ). This is, for example, manufactured by extrusion by Corning in the USA and by NGK in Japan. This substrate is known to have a very low friction coefficient on the mounting surface (i.e. a very smooth surface). This monolith exhibits important properties as low thermal conductivity ⁇ 0,5 W/mK, mechanical strength ⁇ 4 MPa and a melting point around 1260'C. Cast Cordierite catalyst carriers are manufactured by American Lava Inc. in the U.S.A.
- monoliths manufactured of silicon carbide according to US Patent No. 5.195.319 and WO 94/22656 by NoTox Corporation in Denmark.
- This monolith exhibits important properties as high thermal conductivity > 7 W/mK, very high mechanical strength > 30 MPa and a high melting point > 1600°C.
- All ceramic substrates (catalyst support or diesel filter) must be encapsulated in a steel container or "canister" in order to be an integrated part of the exhaust system of the vehicle.
- the rigid steel container wall and the brittle ceramic substrate outside wall are not suited to work in direct contact with each other because of different coefficients of thermal expansion and mechanical strength.
- the different coefficients of thermal expansion will either cause a rapid destruction of the ceramic substrate or - after a longer period of time - eventually cause erosion or cracks of the ceramic substrate or the steel container.
- the erosion or destruction will degrade the function of the ceramic substrate and will result in a lower filtration efficiency in the case of a diesel particulate filter or in a lower catalyst area and, hence, lower catalytic conversion of the harmful exhaust gases.
- destruction of the ceramic substrate will lead to an increased back pressure, hence a higher fuel consumption.
- the materials normally used include "Interam”® manufactured by 3M Inc. (flexible ceramic mat containing an intumescent agent), steel wire wrap manufactured by Catalytic Support Systems Ltd. (flexible mat woven from thin steel wires), pure alumina insulation felt with the trade name “Saffil” from ICI Ltd. in the UK and “FiberFrax” felts from Carborundum Co., U.S.A., which are based on 1-10 ⁇ m thick melt-spun or melt-blown fibres of spun aluminum oxide or a combination of Si0 2 or A1 2 0 3 .
- the thickness of the blanket or mat is generally around 2-20 mm or 5-10 mm under compression.
- the most commonly used interface material is the above-mentioned "Interam”® which is described in US Patent No. 3,916,057, US Patent No. 4,365,922 and US Patent No. 4,385,135).
- the refractory fibrous alumina silicate ceramic material incorporates the flake mineral Vermiculite as the special feature which ensures an expansion of the mat during heating.
- the Vermiculite acts as an intumescing agent.
- the mat compresses the ceramic substrate inside the container and also compensates for manufacturing tolerances.
- the pressure, and thus the mechanical stress on the ceramic substrate from the mat increases due to the intumescent effect of the Vermiculite.
- the pressure increases up to a factor of 10 depending on the initial pressure and on the temperature. Gas sealing provided by the "Interam”® mat is very good.
- the thickness of Interam made for this kind of interface is usually between 2 and 8 mm.
- Knitted Crimped Wire Wrap A metallic interface, called Knitted Crimped Wire Wrap, is well known and often manufactured by knitting a relatively thin metal wire (0.05-0.2 mm thick) into a clothlike material with an un ⁇ compressed thickness of 2-15 mm, as it is done, for example, at the UK based company Catalytic Support Systems Ltd.
- This extremely porous and highly flexible material is compressed slightly during the canning process and does not show any extra additional expansion during heating.
- the bending strength and the Young's and shear moduli of the metal wire give the necessary canning pressure.
- This material is usually resilient.
- a problem with the knitted wire mesh is the gas sealing. This can be solved by incorporating a band of "Interam”® or refractory fibre material at the ends or in the middle of the wrap assembly. This gas sealing band may be 10-80% wide, such as 20-40% wide, of the total length of the wrap assembly.
- the metal ring-lands may also be made so wide, that they, at the same time, also hold the ceramic substrate in the axial direction. This is especially true for WFF diesel filters.
- a ring of flexible material is mounted between the metal L-ring and the ceramic substrate.
- the ceramic substrate is manufactured with a 10 mm wide band, a so-called “dead ring area", on the inlet face and the outlet face of the substrate.
- the ring-land used to prevent axial movement of the monolith reduces the frontal face area, and by this also the active surface area of the system.
- the canister may be corrugated in order to increase the grip at the interface.
- the required pressure applied during the encapsulation ("the canning") of the ceramic substrate is determined by a lower and a higher limit.
- the lower limit is determined from the axial force on the substrate.
- the friction between the ceramic substrate and the flexible material must be so large that the substrate is not able to move in the can during use in the exhaust system. This limit is given in the following formula (SAE paper 840074)
- F z is the axial force exerted on the substrate due to differential pressure and acceleration of the vehicle.
- D is the substrate diameter.
- L is the length of the interface between the substrate and the flexible material, ⁇ is the friction coefficient (in this case a constant).
- the higher limit for the canning pressure is given by a combination of : - the compression strength - the tensile strength of the ceramic substrate - the shear modulus of the flexible material
- the ceramic substrate will be moved or pressed against the end cone of the steel container due to the exerted axial forces. This will lead to erosion and destruction of the ceramic material. If the canning pressure is too high several things can happen. If it increases the compressive loading on the ceramic substrate, which will be crushed and destroyed. If the pressure is lower than the compressive strength but higher than a certain limit, the flexible interface is not flexible enough with respect to the shear stresses, and this will lead to too high tensile stresses due to the different thermal expansion coefficients of the steel container and the substrate. The expansion of the steel container is the same all over the total length of the substrate. The expansion of the substrate is considerably lower, often a factor of 10 in comparison to the steel. The high axial tensile stresses thus applied on the ceramic substrate will lead to the so-called "ring-off" cracks. In the case of a diesel particulate filter, the "ring-off cracks will give a deterioration in the filtration efficiency.
- the total expansion of the improved steel material AISI 409 is reduced to 2/3 of that of AISI 304/316.
- Thermal insulation is of major impr .tance in order to keep the steel container at a suitable temperature which will reduce the expansion and the differences in expansion between the substrate and the container. It is an advantage to increase the insulation interface thickness or the insulation value. This, however, has the drawback of increased cost and canister diameter.
- This invention concerns the modification of the friction between the substrate and the flexible interface between the substrate and the steel container by modifying the monolith substrate outer surface.
- Increased roughness of the outer surface of a ceramic substrate is a major advantage in the application of ceramic substrates - slip-cast or extruded - for diesel particulate filters and catalyst carriers.
- An increased roughness, hence increased friction coefficient, will allow the interface a better grip of the monolith and lead to a lower canning or encapsulation pressure necessary to hold the ceramic substrate during handling and use.
- the ceramic catalyst carrier development shows a higher number of thinner walls and hence lower mechanical strength.
- One important feature of this invention is the great improvement of the WFF effective filtration area as no "dead" ring-land is needed to secure the substrate in the axial direction.
- an aspect of the invention relates to an after-treatment device for exhaust gas from a combustion engine, comprising
- a ceramic honeycomb monolith body at least part of which defines a cylindrical shape having a circumference surface
- the container having an inlet adapted to be connected to an exhaust duct from the combustion engine and an outlet for exhaust gas which has passed through monolith
- the circumference surface of the honeycomb monolith having a domain or domains which has/have been modified to obtain an increased roughness in order to increase the friction towards the interface material.
- cylindrical is to be understood in its generally accepted broad sense as defined, e.g., in Websters Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary of the English Language, Portland House, New York, 1989, that is, the cross-section of the cylinder is not necessarily circular, although it often will be. Other cross-sections used in the automotive industry are, e.g. ellipsoidal (race track) or unsymmetrical. While the term “cylindrical” indicates that the ends of the body are normally parallel and (as in a right cylinder) at a right angle to the circumferential surface, this is not necessarily the case in the bodies according to the invention, but certainly the most common shape.
- the term “honeycomb” is used in the same meaning as it is conventionally used in the art: it indicates that the monolith body has a number of symmetrical, parallel adjacent channels extending in the longitudinal direction of the monolith body, see also Figures 10 and 11.
- the increased roughness is normally a roughness of at least 1.5 times the roughness of the corresponding non-modified surface (which is often defined as the circumferential surface of the extruded and heat-treated body), more often at least 2 times the roughness of the corresponding non-modified surface.
- the increased roughness can also be defined with reference to a DIN norm, that is, as roughness of 100-6000 ⁇ m, as determined as R z according to DIN 4766, preferably 200-4000 ⁇ m and more preferably a roughness of 500-2000 ⁇ m, as determined as R z according to DIN 4766.
- the surface domain or domains having increased roughness may have any desired shape and extension and may be coherent domains or discontinuous patterns such as dot patterns. In preferred embodiments, they will often be a band or bands extending on the circumference surface of the monolith, either in the axial direction, or, more often, perpendicular thereto, or, in an intermediate direction.
- the roughness may suitably be constituted by surface parts extending upwardly from the remaining surface, such as refractory particles bound to and optionally embedded in the surface.
- the particles will normally be particles of the same ceramic material as constitutes the monolith, but it is, of course, also possible to use particles of a different ceramic material.
- types of refractory particles may be mentioned particles of silicon carbide, Cordierite, Corundum, Alumina, Silicon Nitride or a material blended of components selected from the groups I, II, III, rV, V, VI, VII, or V ⁇ i of the elements.
- the use of the same ceramic material as constitutes the monolith will facilitate the effective production in that it permits simple conversion of the "green" monolith body with the particles on the surface to refractory bodies with the particles on the surface by heat treatment.
- the particles used for this purpose will normally have a size in the range of Mesh 8 to Mesh 220, such as Mesh 20-120, preferably Mesh 30-60.
- the invention also relates to a ceramic honeycomb monolith body for use in a device as defined above, and to methods for producing such a body.
- One such method comprises producing a "green" ceramic honeycomb monolith body, applying, to a domain or domains of the surface of the green body, ceramic particles in such a manner that they become bound to and optionally embedded in the surface and extend upwardly from the surface, and heat treating the particle- carrying monolith body to convert it to a refractory body with the particles ceramically bound to the surface.
- a suitable way of binding the particles to the surface is by first applying a layer of a slurry containing fine ceramic particles to the surface, and then applying coarser particles to the slurry layer, e.g. by sprinkling. In the later heat treatment, the slurry will be converted to contact "glue" points binding the particles to the surface. Often, an improved binding of the particles to the surface is obtained by applying an extra layer of slurry on top of the particles. It is also possible to press the particles into the surface of the green monolith body, whereby they will be permanently bonded during the heat treatment; however, it is often preferred to combine the pressing procedure with a simultaneous or subsequent application of a slurry as described above.
- Another method for producing a ceramic honeycomb monolith body according to the invention is to produce a green ceramic honeycomb monolith body, create upwardly extending surface flaws in a domain or domains of the circumferential surface thereof, and heat treat the particle- carrying monolith body to convert it to a refractory body.
- the surface flaws may, e.g., be created by means of a needle or sprocket wheel.
- the improved fixation of the monolith is obtained by increasing the friction between the inside of the container and the interface material.
- This aspect which can, of course, be combined with the aspect where the roughening modification is a modification of the monolith surface, can be defined as an after-treatment device for exhaust gas from a combustion engine, comprising
- a ceramic honeycomb monolith body at least part of which defines a cylindrical shape having a circumference surface
- the container Laving an inlet adapted to be connected to an exhaust duct from the combustion engine and an outlet for exhaust gas which has passed through monolith,
- the inside surface of the metal container having a domain or domains which has/have been modified to obtain an increased roughness in order to increase the friction towards the interface material.
- the increased roughness can be obtained by applying a glaze or enamel to the inside surface of the container, coarse refractory particles conferring an increased roughness being incorporated in the glaze or enamel or applied thereto, and then heat treating.
- Another way of improving the friction between the inside of the container and the interface material is to apply a foil or tape carrying a glaze or enamel with coarse refractory particles (Mesh 8-220) embedded in the glaze or enamel to the outside of the interface material prior to encapsulation so that the coarse particles will increase the friction between the interface material and the metal container.
- the high temperature conditions will burn away any organic material in the tape, and the particles will become entrapped/adhered between the interface material and the inside of the container.
- the tape of foil application technique may also be used to apply roughening particles to the domain between the interface material and the monolith surface, either by applying the tape or foil to the monolith surface or by applying the tape or foil to interior surface of the interface material.
- an important tool for obtaining the roughening effect according to the invention is constituted by a foil or tape carrying a glaze or enamel with coarse refractory particles embedded in the glaze or enamel.
- the particles will normally be Mesh 8-220, usually Mesh 20-80, preferably Mesh 30-60, particles. It is, of course, practical for the application of the tape that it carries an adhesive layer on the side not carrying the glaze or enamel.
- Figure 1 shows a longitudinal section of a "canned" monolith.
- the canned monolith is ⁇ rcular-cynndrical, but it is evident that also either shapes such as ellipsoidal-cylindrical
- a ceramic monolith 1 is encapsulated in a cylindrical canister 2, with a flexible interface material such a Interam, 3 between the container metal and the monohth surface.
- Figure 1 can be used both to illustrate the known art and the present invention.
- the diameter of the monohth is also the effective diameter D eff .
- the mounting pressure symbolized by P in figure 1 must necessarily be high.
- the steel container or canister 2 transfers the high mounting pressure forces through a flexible interface 3. This often results in a "ring crack".
- the monohth surface 5 with a friction area of higher roughness the much better grip is obtained between the interface material and the monohth, whereby a lower canning pressure can be used.
- a friction increasing modification may also be applied on the inside 4 of the canister, thereby further enhancing the fixation of the monohth by enhancing the fixation between the flexible interface material and steel the canister.
- Figure 2 illustrates a method commonly used in the prior art when canning a monohth.
- L-rings 1 and an extra ring 2 normally of a flexible material such as a wire mesh ring are mounted to take up any axial movement of the monohth.
- the drawback is the reduced effective diameter D efa of the monohth. The reduction is often in a range of 0 10-25 mm.
- Figure 3 is a cross section illustrating the general build up of the after-treatment devices as commonly used with the monohth 1 in the center and, in this case, two layer of interface material 2 all the way around the monohth.
- the outer encapsulation (canister) is constituted by a steel plate 3.
- a monohth 2 with a friction band 1 apphed to the monohth surface i.e. described in Example 1 or 2
- a steel container or canister 6 with flexible interface material 5 The areas 3 of the monohth surface are smooth. While the interface material and the monohth are fixed relative to each other by means of the friction band 1, the interface material is fixed relative to the canister 6 by means of "L-rings" 4. As it will be noted, this construction makes it possible to utilize the full effective diameter of the monohth.
- Figure 5 is a cross section of the device shown in Figure 4, showing the monohth 2 in the center surrounded by the interface material 3 and encapsulated by the container or canister 6.
- the essential friction band is shown at 1.
- Figure 6 shows a section according to A-A in Figure 5, but in a slightly modified version where the container or canister 6 is provided with a groove 7, thereby fixing the interface material 5 relative to the container or canister 6.
- no "L-ring" is needed, and the effective diameter is still the full diameter of the monohth.
- Figures 7-9 illustrate measurements of the improvements in friction obtained according to the invention and are discussed in greater detail further below.
- Figure 10 illustrates an alternative design where the monolith is assembled from four identical segments 1, 2, 3, 4 each with two flat sides and one circular arc sides constituting a 90°C angle of the total circle.
- a band 5 of high friction material has been apphed during the manufacturing process in accordance with the techniques discussed herein.
- the unit may be assemble from a number of individual segments around a circular central segment. The surfaces pointing towards the interstice between adjacent segments may also be provided with friction-increasing areas in accordance with the techniques described herein.

- slices e.g. circumferential groups or shorter groups, preferably in a direction having a circumferential component, in the surface or in the circumferential surface of the "green bodies" or the sintered bodies.
- the groups will interact with a flexible interface material to fix the interface material relative to monolith in the longitudinal direction, thereby preventing actual movement of the monolith in the canister.

- the length of the slices may be endless all around the monolith or the length may be decided by the cutting tool.
- the slices may be cut symmetrically or non-symmetrically on the monohth surface.
- the flexible interface material used in connection with this type of friction enhancement is preferably a thread- or fiber-based material such as a wire mesh ceramic fiber insulation mat.
- a special technique for applying a roughness-increasing domain on the metal container inside comprises the use of a glaze or enamel.
- the basic principle of this is as follows:
- a mix of enamel/glaze, recrystallization agent and coarse grained refractories is applied on the inner surface of the canning container in order to increase the friction coefficient between the steel surface and the insulating material.
- a band of the applied mix has a width that can be adjusted during the application of the mix.
- the width of the applied mix is normally 20-80 % of the total length of the steel container.
- the enamel melts and binds the coarse grained refractory particles to the steel surface.
- the recrystallization agent After prolonged heating (either by the use of a furnace or by using the hot exhaust gas from the vehicle's engine) the recrystallization agent reacts with the enamel resulting in:
- a temporary organic binder is necessary for the application of the mix to the inner surface of the steel container.
- This binder can either be a water based polymer or a glue/adhesive based on, for example, polyurethane.
- the temporary organic binder is decomposed on heating to a temperature of above 200-300°C. This temperature is lower than the temperature of the exhaust gas of the vehicle.
- composition of the mix is usually in the range:
- recrystallization agent (Halloysite, kaolinite, zirconia, titania)
- the ingredients of the enamel/glaze were mixed dry using a bakery blender and fritted at 1200°C in an electrically heated surface in air. The resulting frit was ground to a mean grain size of approximately 10 ⁇ m.
- the steel container was a rolled from a 1.5 mm thick, 300 mm wide and 700 mm long AISI 304 stainless steel sheet.
- the glaze band thickness was approximately 0.75 mm.

The surrounding steel container was welded and the whole unit was placed in a electrically heated furnace at more than 700°C for 60 minutes in order to expand the Interam ® mat and to melt the enamel/glaze to bind the coarse grained SiC particles to the steel sheet.
- the friction band on the interior surface of the steel container increased the friction coefficient of the steel surface towards the Interam® mat from 0.35 to 0.8.
- Example 8 1.5 kg of enamel/glaze produced as described in Example 8 was mixed with 1 kg kaohnite and 250 g Tylose MH 300 P in a bakery blender. After mixing for 10 minutes, 4000 g water was added and the mixing continued for further 15 minutes.
- the mix was apphed on a 100 mm wide roll of 0.2 mm thick paper using a doctor blade method. In this continuous procedure, the mix was cast to a layer thickness of approximately 2 mm on the rolling sheet of paper. A sharp blade placed at a fixed position above the rolling paper ensured a wet layer thickness of approximately 0.5 mm.
- a ceramic monohth of the same type as described in Example 8 was mounted in the steel container.
- the steel container was welded, and the whole unit was placed in a electrically heated furnace at 700°C for 60 minutes in order to expand the Interam mat and to melt the enamel/glaze to bind the coarse grained SiC particles to the steel sheet.
- Figure 7 shows friction coefficients measured between a Interam® insulating mat and various sample surfaces. In order to examine the effect of the increased friction coefficient between the ceramic monohth and the insulating mat, measurements of the friction force between sample surfaces and a Interam® type HI mat was performed.
- the force necessary to make the Interam® mat with applied load slip relative to the sample surface was measured. This force is called the friction force.
- the friction coefficient was calculated as the friction force divided with the apphed loading force. An average from 10 measurements was used as result.
- Figure 8 shows friction coefficients measured between a coarse grade knitted stainless steel wire mesh and various sample surfaces.
- Figure 9 shows friction coefficients measured between a coarse grade knitted stainless steel wire mesh and different sample surfaces. The same experiment as described in the text for figure 7 was performed using a medium grade stainless steel wire mesh knitted with 2.5 mm openings instead of the Interam mat.
- sample surfaces were:
- SiC grain/SiC bond full length This surface is designated "SiC grain/SiC bond full length”.
- the friction coefficient is increased from 1.2 to 1.6 or more by the application of a high friction band.
