Abstract
Abstract An improved rigid, porous product and process for making such product are disclosed. The product comprises a particulate material bound by a thermosetting resin and characterized by uniformly distributed and interconnecting porosity. The body initially is made by isostatic pressing of a mixture of the particulate material and resin and, inter alia, the cured body is suitable for use as a die, mold or filtering device.
