Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of filter structures possibly comprising a catalytic component, for example used in an exhaust line of a diesel type internal combustion engine.
- Filters for the treatment of gases and the removal of soot typically from a diesel engine are well known in the prior art. These structures all most often have a honeycomb structure, one of the faces of the structure allowing the admission of the exhaust gas to be treated and the other side the evacuation of the treated exhaust gas.
- the structure comprises, between the intake and discharge faces, a set of adjacent ducts or channels of axes parallel to each other separated by porous walls.
- the ducts are closed at one or the other of their ends to delimit inlet chambers opening on the inlet face and outlet chambers opening along the discharge face.
- the channels are alternately closed in an order such that the exhaust gases, during the crossing of the honeycomb body, are forced to pass through the sidewalls of the inlet channels to join the outlet channels. In this way, the particles or soot are deposited and accumulate on the porous walls of the filter body.
- porous ceramic filters for example made of cordierite, alumina, mullite, silicon nitride, a silicon / silicon carbide mixture or silicon carbide, are used for the filtration of gases.
- the particulate filter is subjected to a succession of filtration (soot accumulation) and regeneration phases.
- soot particles emitted by the engine are retained and are deposited inside the filter.
- soot particles are burned inside the filter, in order to restore its filtration properties.
- An important criterion involved in the implementation and the life of a filter for example in an exhaust line of an engine is its thermomechanical resistance.
- soot deposition time corresponds to the time required for the filter to reach its maximum level of filtration efficiency, during its first implementation or after a regeneration phase. It is assumed that this time is a function in particular of placing a sufficient amount of soot in the porosity of the filter to block the direct passage of fine soot particles through the walls of the filter.
- One of the direct consequences of an unsuitable soot deposition time is the appearance of persistent and harmful black smoke, as well as the presence of traces of soot at the outlet of the exhaust line, on a new filter or after a regeneration phase. It is obvious that for issues of environment, image and comfort of use, car manufacturers want the occurrence of such phenomena is removed or at least minimized on vehicles equipped with such filters.
- soot deposition is a poorly known phenomenon, probably because the deposited soot mass is not measurable in real time on a filter being solicited. Only the soot deposition time indirectly measured from the analysis of the rate of particles present in the exhaust gas at the outlet of the filter is indeed accessible.

- the channels of each face of the monolith are alternately plugged according to well-known techniques, for example described in application WO 2004/065088.
- the monolith is then baked according to a rise in temperature of 20 ° C./hour until a temperature of the order of 2200 ° C. is reached which is maintained for 2 hours. Finally, a series of silicon carbide monoliths is obtained whose microstructural characteristics depend on the composition of the initial mixture and on the synthesis conditions.

- D-Porosimetry of the material constituting the walls The porosity of the silicon carbide constituting the walls was determined according to the standard techniques of high-pressure porosimetry of mercury, with a porosimeter of micromeritics type 9500. The analyzes show for all the samples tested a distribution of unimodal pore sizes. The median pore diameter is determined from the cumulative pore volume distribution as a function of pore size, obtained by measuring porosimetry using the Mercury Porosimeter.
- a wall section belonging to each of the samples was prepared by polishing.
- Photographs of a 1 mm 2 wall surface were then taken at different locations on the polished wall of the samples by a BSE scanning electron microscope (backscattered electron).
- the raw images thus obtained were processed by a known technique of thresholding of the porosity, such that the noise pixels, that is to say not corresponding to a true porosity of the material, are removed from the photograph.
- the series of images thus obtained is then processed by the method of morphological erosion, the structuring element chosen being a disk of fixed radius and as reported in Table 2. This technique has the advantage of isolating areas of porosity and to highlight the regularity, continuity and homogeneity of the microstructure of the material constituting said wall.

- Table 2 the reported values of the number of residual zones, the average area of the zones and the cumulative area of the zones correspond to an average of these values, calculated from a series of 10 SEM images in BSE mode. of the wall surface, taken in different positions.
- Table 2 shows an astonishing correlation between the microstructural characteristics of the filters deduced from the technique of morphological erosion and the results obtained in the various qualification tests of said filters. More particularly, it is observed that the best results and compromises in terms of soot deposition time, pressure drop and thermomechanical resistance are obtained for the R-SiC-based filter structures according to the present invention, as defined in US Pat. following claims.
