Method of producing honeycomb segment bonded article

Abstract

There is provided a method for producing a honeycomb segment bonded article, the method inhibiting decrease in strength properties due to a variance in a texture of the bonding material layer between a plurality of honeycomb segments unitarily bonded together by means of the bonding material layer formed of the bonding material. After producing a preliminary block by unitarily bonding a plurality of honeycomb segments having a plurality of cells being partitioned by partition walls and passing through in the axial direction with a bonding material at a bonding face of each of the honeycomb segments and drying the honeycomb segments, the preliminary blocks are integrally bonded together, or honeycomb segments of one layer are bonded on an outer peripheral face of the preliminary block.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
