The Effect of Prewetting on the Loading of γ‐Alumina Washcoated Cordierite Monolith

Abstract: Washcoating of alumina on cordierite monoliths has been studied with the objective of preparing monoliths with high loadings (430 wt%). As the alumina loading increased, the competition between spreading and imbibition of the slurry in the monolith channels had a predominant influence on the loading that could be achieved. It was observed that, partial saturation of the washcoat with water allowed the use of concentrated slurries during multiple immersions. The effect of prewetting on the washcoat properties s… Show more

“…The solid loading of slurries, as an index of coating reproducibility and controllability, strongly depends upon the slurry viscosity, , number of immersions, etc. The variation of the loading percentage with different zeolite contents is shown in Figure a.…”

“…Both of them increased with solid content increasing. Studies have shown the same results as the viscosity is strongly dependent on solid content. Another feature worth noting was that at higher concentration, the viscosity of ZM‐AT2 was much higher than that of ZM‐P.…”

“…Also, upon repeated coating, the slurry will become more viscous than the initial concentration, until a point is reached where each coat adds excessive weight on the monolith, coherently affecting homogeneity. Capillary forces allow for water to be drawn into the pores of the monolith structure which creates competition for adherence of the slurry [108]. An intermediate pre-wetting step, discussed by Mogalicherla and Kunzru, allows for a high washcoat loading to be achieved [108].…”

An intermediate pre-wetting step, discussed by Mogalicherla and Kunzru, allows for a high washcoat loading to be achieved [108]. Agrafiotis and Tsetsekou have reported an optimum slurry concentration of 45 wt % solids and viscosity between 50 and 150 mPa·s [94].…”
