JOINING METAL WIRE FILAMENTS TO NONWOVEN STRUCTURES FOR PRODUCING HONEY-COMB BODIES

摘要

A process for producing a fleece having metallic wire filaments, includes at least the following steps: a) forming a layer including wire filaments; b) producing first cohesive connections between at least some of the metallic wire filaments in a first joining process; and c) producing second cohesive connections between metallic wire filaments in a second joining process. A process for producing a honeycomb body having at least one fleece, a fleece, a honeycomb body, an apparatus and a vehicle using fleeces in the treatment of exhaust gas from motor vehicles, are also provided.
