HOCHFESTE WABENSTRUKTUR

摘要

There are provided a honeycomb structure capable of suppressing a decrease in isostatic strength attendant on the thinning of the honeycomb structure, a honeycomb structure converter thereof, and a method of manufacturing the honeycomb structure. There is provided a honeycomb structure 1 having a number of cells 3 partitioned by partition walls 2 and extending to a axial direction. There are the honeycomb structure wherein a thickness (TY) of a partition walls (2Y) whose longitudinal direction is one direction (Y-direction) in a section perpendicular to the axial direction of the honeycomb structure 1 is greater than that (TX) of a partition walls (2X) whose longitudinal direction is the other direction; and a honeycomb structure converter thereof. There is provided a method of molding the above-mentioned honeycomb structure. That is the method of molding honeycomb structure wherein the honeycomb structure is extrusion molded such that the Y-direction is a direction of gravity.
