Catalyst member for a lighter and process for producing the same

摘要

A catalyst member for a lighter comprises a linear base material, and a fusion bonding material, which is constituted of a material selected from the group consisting of a powdered metal and a vitreous fused material. A finely divided catalyst carrier, which is constituted of a metal oxide, is secured to the surface of the linear base material by the fusion bonding material. A catalyst is deposited on the surface of the finely divided catalyst carrier.
