Patent number: 7521087Abstract: A catalyst composition is applied to an interior of a hollow substrate. The composition is coated on the substrate by immersing the substrate into a vessel containing a bath of coating slurry. A vacuum is then applied to the partially immersed substrate. The intensity of the vacuum and its application time is sufficient to draw the coating slurry upwardly from the bath into each of a plurality of channels located in the interior of the hollow substrate. After removing the substrate from the bath, it is rotated 180°. A blast of pressurized air is applied at an intensity and for a time sufficient to distribute the coating slurry within the channels of the substrate to form a uniform coating profile therein.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2008Date of Patent: April 21, 2009Assignee: BASF Catalysts LLCInventors: Victor Rosynsky, Kenneth W. Blamble, Brent C. Bibbee, Jerry D. Cornelius, Ralph A. Quigley, Gary A. Gramiccioni, Masaki Funabiki, Tunehisa Kawauchi, Tomoya Takahashi

Patent number: 7476417Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of coating a substrate, such as a honeycomb having a plurality of parallel channels defined by the honeycomb walls. The honeycomb has different zones along the length of the channels. The zones are defined by their coating (or lack of coating) and extend for a length of the channel in which there is the same coating and architecture. Soluble components in coating compositions are fixed in their respective zones by forcing a heated gas stream through the channels.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2007Date of Patent: January 13, 2009Assignee: BASF Catalysts LLCInventors: Joseph C. Dettling, Victor Rosynsky, Chung-Zong Wan

Patent number: 5866210Abstract: A method for coating a substrate having a plurality of channels with a coating media in which the substrate is partially immersed into a vessel containing a bath of the coating media with the volume of coating media lying above the end of the immersed substrate being sufficient to coat the substrate to a desired level. A vacuum is then applied to the partially immersed substrate at an intensity and time sufficient to draw the coating media upwardly from the bath into each of the channels to form a uniform coating profile therein.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 1997Date of Patent: February 2, 1999Assignee: Engelhard CorporationInventors: Victor Rosynsky, Douglas Min, Paul Grabenstetter

Patent number: 4609563Abstract: Method and apparatus for coating catalytic converter substrates with an exact amount of a precious metal. In the course of operation of the apparatus, a hollow substrate to be treated having opposed open ends is transferred from a starting location such that one end is lowered into a dip pan into which has been introduced a predetermined amount of slurry material containing the precious metal. With the one end immersed in the slurry, a vacuum placed on the other end of the substrate draws up the entire charge of slurry from the dip pan to coat the lower portion of the substrate. Thereafter, the substrate is raised from the dip pan. The vacuum continues to operate to cause the coating to be evenly distributed on all the interior surfaces of the substrate. Then the substrate is rotated and again lowered so that the other end is immersed in another predetermined charge of the slurry and the process is repeated. Thereupon, the substrate is again raised from the dip pan.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 1985Date of Patent: September 2, 1986Assignee: Engelhard CorporationInventors: Thomas Shimrock, Victor Rosynsky, Theodore M. Caridi, John M. Collins, Michael G. Koubek

Patent number: 4142864Abstract: A catalytic, gas treating apparatus in which a unitary ceramic catalytic element having gas flow passages therethrough, is positioned within a metallic casing in a manner providing a space between the casing and the catalytic element. A resilient member which is compressible both radially and longitudinally is positioned around the catalytic element in said space to resiliently hold the catalytic element. A plug member is positioned at least partially in said space, and, for instance, around the catalytic element at opposite end portions of the catalytic element, in a manner which longitudinally compresses said resilient member to a substantial extent to increase the holding force exerted on the catalytic element by the resilient member and thereby inhibit axial movement of the catalytic element during use.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 1977Date of Patent: March 6, 1979Assignee: Engelhard Minerals & Chemicals CorporationInventors: Victor Rosynsky, Alfred Stawsky
