CONDUCTIVE CERAMIC HONEYCOMBS WITH RESISTIVE HEATING CAPABILITY AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME

Abstract:

electrically conductive honeycomb body that includes a porous honeycomb structure including a plurality of intersecting porous walls arranged to provide a matrix of cells, the porous walls including wall surfaces that define a plurality of channels extending from an inlet end to an outlet end of the structure. The porous walls include ceramic composite material that includes at least one carbide phase and at least one silicide phase, each carbide and silicide phase including one or more metals selected from the group consisting of Si, Mo, Ti, Zr and W.
