China Cordierite DPF Honeycomb Ceramic  Manufacturer, Manufacturers

Cordierite Diesel Particulate Filter(DPF) The most common filter is made of cordierite. Cordierite filters provide excellent filtration efficiency, are relatively inexpensive (comparison with Sic wall flow filter). The major drawback is that cordierite has a relatively low melting point.

Product Description

Working Principle

By forcing the exhaust gases through the walls between the channels of the DPF, the particulate matter is deposited on the walls, so reducing the amount of air pollution.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the primary function of a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)?

The main function of a DPF is to capture and filter out harmful particulate matter (soot) from diesel engine exhaust gases by forcing the gas through porous substrate walls, significantly cutting emissions.

Why is Cordierite used as the substrate material?

Cordierite provides high thermal stability, a low coefficient of thermal expansion, and a high softening temperature (above 1420℃), ensuring reliable durability under extreme exhaust temperatures.

What does CPSI indicate in the product specifications?

CPSI stands for Cells Per Square Inch. It defines the cell density across the filter face. A rating of 100 or 200 CPSI provides an optimal balance between filtration efficiency and exhaust backpressure.

What mechanical strength ratings do these filters feature?

The filters demonstrate high mechanical durability with a lengthways compression strength of up to 16.9 MPa and a horizontal compression strength of 6.2 MPa to withstand vehicle vibrations and packaging stress.

How does porosity affect filter performance?

With a controlled porosity level between 40% and 45%, the substrate ensures efficient gas permeability to prevent excessive backpressure while effectively trapping fine soot particles inside the channel walls.

What volume sizes are available for commercial applications?

Substrates range from smaller capacities starting at 1.67 Liters (φ118*152.4) up to heavy-duty industrial capacities reaching 32.59 Liters (φ330*381) to match diverse engine displacement requirements.
