Abstract: A method of coating a substrate with a liquid comprising a catalyst component, which substrate comprises a plurality of channels, wherein the method comprises: (a) holding the substrate vertically; (b) introducing the liquid into the substrate through the open ends of the channels at a lower end of the substrate; and (c) after the lower end of the substrate has been part-filled with the liquid, applying a vacuum to the open ends of the channels at the upper end of the substrate while introducing the liquid into the substrate.

Abstract: A method of coating a substrate with a liquid comprising a catalyst component, the method comprising: (a) holding the substrate vertically, thereby defining upper and lower ends thereof, wherein the vertical substrate comprises a plurality of channels that are open at said upper and lower ends; (b) continuously introducing the liquid into the substrate by pushing or injecting the liquid through the open ends of the channels at the lower end of the substrate with a piston; and (c) after the lower end of the substrate has been partly filled with the liquid in step (b), applying a vacuum to the open ends of the channels at the upper end of the substrate while continuing to introduce the liquid into the substrate.
