METHOD OF PRODUCING A POROUS METAL AND A METAL PRODUCT USING THE SAME

摘要

A method of producing a porous metal, which comprises forming a mixture of a metal powder and a fibrous substance and subjecting the mixture to sintering treatment to obtain a porous metal; a catalyst carrier obtained by laminating a dried sheet wherein a metal powder is supported in a fibrous substance with a dried sheet obtained by corrugating a dried sheet similar to the first-mentioned sheet to form an assembly of a number of cells having both ends opened and subjecting the assembly to sintering treatment; and a filter element obtained by laminating a dried sheet wherein a metal powder is supported in a fibrous substance with a dried sheet obtained by corrugating a dried sheet similar to the first-mentioned sheet to form an assembly of a number of cells whose one end is opened and whose other end is closed and subjecting the assembly to sintering treatment.
