A honeycomb structure includes a substantially pillar-shaped honeycomb unit having cells defined by cell walls. The cell walls include silicon carbide particles having a nitrogen-containing layer provided on surfaces of the silicon carbide particles. A method of manufacturing a honeycomb structure includes preparing paste containing silicon carbide particles. The paste is molded to form a honeycomb molded body. The honeycomb molded body is fired in an inert atmosphere containing no nitrogen to obtain a substantially pillar-shaped honeycomb unit having cells defined by cell walls. The honeycomb unit is heated in an environment containing nitrogen to provide a nitrogen-containing layer on surfaces of the silicon carbide particles forming the cell walls. |

The present invention is directed to methods for forming heat absorbing bodies (and the resulting heat absorbing bodies and enclosures formed thereby) that utilize capillary action to draw a fluidic composition comprising a molten phase change material (PCM) into the interstitial spaces of a porous body of a refractory material. In one embodiment, the fluidic composition saturates substantially all of the interstitial spaces of a porous body of a fibrous ceramic refractory material. |

One or more of these or other problems are improved using a method of making a strong gypsum panel which includes a method for forming a hardened shell structure at the interface of a foamed bubble and a gypsum slurry. A strengthening component is selected from the group consisting of set accelerators, water soluble polyphosphate salts, blends of water soluble polyphosphate salts with starch, boric acid, fibers, glycerin or combinations thereof. The strengthening component is combined with a foaming agent and with water to form an aqueous soap mixture. Foam is generated from the aqueous soap mixture, and added to a gypsum slurry. Allowing the strengthening component to contact the soap bubbles prior to addition of the foam to the gypsum slurry allows the strengthening component to preferentially contact the soap film rather than be dispersed through the entire slurry. |

The filter catalyst for purifying exhaust gases having a catalytic layer comprising the first catalyst support 2 having an average particle diameter of 1 nullm or less, the second catalyst support 3 having an average particle diameter from {fraction (1/20)} to null of the average pore diameter of the filter cellular walls 12 and catalytic ingredients, on the filter cellular walls 12 having an average pore diameter of from 20 to 40 nullm, and the catalytic layer having uneven surfaces is used. Since the second catalyst support hardly enters into the pore with a diameter of 20 nullm or less, it exists partly on the filter cellular walls and the inside surface of the wall. Therefore, since PMs collide with the convex part of the catalytic layer, it becomes possible to collect them easily and the collecting rate for PMs and the ability of PMs purification are improved. |
