Method for measuring surface roughness of honeycomb structures and surface roughness-measuring elements used therefor

摘要

A method for measuring surface roughness of an end face of a honeycomb structure having a plurality of cells by using a stylus having a width corresponding to a width of at least two cells. A honeycomb surface roughness-measuring element, which is adapted for the measurement of a surface roughness of an end face of a honeycomb structure, includes a stylus having a tip, said tip having a widened edge with a width of 2 to 8 mm and a radius of curvature of 1 to 5 mu m.
