METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING HONEYCOMB STRUCTURE, AND HONEYCOMB STRUCTURE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing a honeycomb structure in which a honeycomb structure having excellent strength and a large specific surface area can be manufactured.

SOLUTION: The method for manufacturing a honeycomb structure comprises a molding step of using a raw material composition which contains at least inorganic particles and mineral fibers and/or whiskers and an inorganic binder to manufacture a pillar-shaped honeycomb molding in which many cells are arranged side-by-side in the longitudinal direction separated by cell walls and a firing step of subjecting the honeycomb molding to firing to manufacture a honeycomb fired body, wherein the inorganic particles comprise secondary particles formed by the aggregation of primary particles, and the average particle size of the inorganic binder in the raw material composition is 1/200-1/40 of the average particle size of the inorganic particles.
