Abstract

According to the present invention, there is provided a process for producing a honeycomb body for a metallic carrier from a flat foil and a corrugated foil, which comprises supplying a joining agent comprising a mixture of an adhesive with a carbon powder into abutted portions between the flat foil and the corrugated foil, depositing the joining agent onto the abutted portions to form a honeycomb body and heat-treating the honeycomb body only or an outer cylinder with the honeycomb body being inserted thereinto in a non-oxidizing atmosphere to mutually join the abutted portions in a liquid phase.
