Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the crack generation on drying while keeping a fluidity when a ceramic body passes through an extrusion nozzle by extruding a plasticized ceramic body prepared by incorporating a cordierite raw material with a specific methyl cellulose. CONSTITUTION:A cordierite raw material prepared by mixing talc, kaolin, alumina and other cordierite material, wherein the mixture contains 42-56wt.% of SiO2, 30-45wt.% of Al2O3 and 12-16wt.% of MgO, is incorporate with 2-7wt.% of a methyl cellulose to obtain a plasticized ceramic body in an extrudable state. In the above-mentioned methyl cellulose, the number obtained by subtracting a molar number of a hydroxypropyl group attached on each glucose ring from an average molar number of methoxyl substituted hydroxy groups on each glucose ring is >=1.5 at a viscosity of >=8000cp (at 20 deg.C, 2% aqueous solution). This body is extruded through an extrusion nozzle for molding a ceramic structure material and the objective cordierite honeycomb structure article having a cell wall thickness of <=140mum is obtained.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a cordierite honeycomb structure generally has a ceramic structure having a discharge passage formed of lattice-shaped grooves and a supply passage for dividing and supplying the ceramic kneaded clay at intersections of the grooves. A ceramic body obtained by mixing and kneading a ceramic raw material, a solvent, a molding aid such as an organic binder, a surfactant, and the like as needed using a body extrusion die was extruded.

As an example, when a ceramic kneaded clay having a cordierite composition containing alumina, kaolin and talc is extruded to form a cordierite honeycomb structure, plate-like crystals of kaolin, talc and the like cause shear stress during extrusion. Since it receives and is oriented, and cordierite crystals are generated in the oriented material, a honeycomb structure having an extremely small thermal expansion coefficient can be manufactured. Such an extruded honeycomb structure having a cordierite composition having a small coefficient of thermal expansion is used as a catalyst carrier for purifying exhaust gas from automobiles, thermal power plants, and the like, which require thermal shock resistance.

As described above, the ceramic kneaded material is passed through the die having the discharge passage formed of the above-mentioned grid-like grooves and the supply and supply passage for separately feeding the kneaded material at the intersection of the grooves. When the above-mentioned conventional ceramic kneaded material is used for extrusion molding, the honeycomb structure after extrusion is deformed by its own weight or is easily deformed by an external force such as vibration generated in the subsequent process. There was a problem that caused it.

[0006] These phenomena are more remarkable as the hardness of the ceramic kneaded clay is lower. However, if the hardness of the ceramic kneaded material is simply increased, the fluidity is lowered, so that the outer peripheral surface becomes a rough surface, and there is a problem that the surface is turned over or cracks occur. In addition, when the molded structure is dried, the shrinkage due to water evaporation becomes non-uniform, and there is a problem that cracks occur due to the difference in shrinkage between the inside and the outer peripheral portion of the honeycomb structure.

From the above results, a cordierite forming raw material was prepared, and in this mixture, a 2% aqueous solution having a viscosity of 8,000 centipoise (cP) or more at 20 ° C. was substituted for the hydroxyl group in the glucose ring unit with a methoxyl group. The number obtained by subtracting the number of moles (MS) of hydroxypropoxyl groups added per glucose ring unit from the average number (DS) was 1.
By adding 2 to 7% by weight of methylcellulose of 5 or more and extruding a ceramic kneaded clay plasticized to be extrudable, shape retention is improved without causing the outer wall surface to be turned or cracked. It can be seen that a good cordierite honeycomb structure can be obtained without causing drying cracks during drying.
The value of DS-MS is preferably 1.5 or more and 3 or less.

Further, the sample No. As shown in Comparative Example 3 above, it was found that if the hardness is simply increased in order to improve the shape retention, the surface is turned up or cracked due to the frictional resistance between the ceramic kneaded clay and the metal wall surface. Furthermore, when the number obtained by subtracting the number of moles (MS) of hydroxypropoxyl groups added per glucose ring unit from the average number (DS) in which the hydroxyl group in the glucose ring unit is substituted with a methoxyl group is less than 1.5, Drying cracks occurred during drying. This is because the high gelation temperature of methyl cellulose as a binder causes shrinkage due to water evaporation before solidification due to gelation completely proceeds, resulting in a difference in shrinkage between the outer peripheral portion and the inner portion of the ceramic structure. . Therefore, the thermal gelation temperature of the kneaded mixture for extrusion molding is 65 ° C.
Is preferred.

Further, the viscosity of methylcellulose is preferably 8000 cP to 2000 at 20 ° C. in a 2% aqueous solution.
Within the range of 0 cP, the shape retention is further improved, dry cracks do not occur, and a good cordierite honeycomb structure can be obtained. Viscosity 300% at 20 ℃ in 2% aqueous solution
If it exceeds 00 cP, the kneading base becomes hard and the surface is turned or cracked due to the frictional resistance with the metal wall surface.

It was possible to improve the shape-retaining property without causing the outer wall surface to be turned over or cracked, and further, dry cracks were not generated. The above effect is obtained when the cell wall thickness of the honeycomb structure is 14
It can be remarkably obtained in the case of 0 μm or less, and more preferably in the case of 120 μm or less. Further, the addition of the hydroxypropoxyl group tends to increase the viscosity, and further improves the water retention, so that the dispersibility in the kneaded clay is improved.
