Abstract
A method for applying a surface treatment to a plugged honeycomb body comprising porous wall includes: mixing particles of an inorganic material with a liquid vehicle and a binder material to form a liquid-particulate-binder stream; mixing the liquid-particulate-binder stream with an atomizing gas, directing the liquid-particulate-binder stream into an atomizing nozzle thereby atomizing the particles into liquid-particulate-binder droplets comprised of the liquid vehicle, the binder material, and the particles; conveying the droplets toward the plugged honeycomb body by a gaseous carrier stream, wherein the gaseous carrier stream comprises a carrier gas and the atomizing gas; evaporating substantially all of the liquid vehicle from the droplets to form agglomerates comprised of the particles and the binder material; depositing the agglomerates onto the porous walls of the plugged honeycomb body; wherein the deposited agglomerates are disposed on, or in, or both on and in, the porous walls.
