Abstract
Abstract A powder composition for producing cordierite is obtained by mixing a water-soluble magnesium salt; a water-soluble aluminum salt; a silicon source selected from the group consisting of organic silicon compounds, silica, silica sol and, silica gel; and an organic solvent, adding to the resultant mixture an ammonia-alkaline solution of ammonium carbonate thereby producing a precipitate, separating the precipitate, and drying the separated precipitate.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
A method for the manufacture of a powder composition for cordierite, which comprises preparing water containing a water-soluble magnesium salt, a water-soluble aluminum salt, and at least one silicon source selected from the group consisting of (a) an organic silicon compound and (b) at least one member selected from the group consisting of finely divided silicon oxide, silica gel, and silica sol in amounts calculated to correspond to a cordierite percentage composition as Mg, Al, and Si, mixing this water with a water-soluble organic solvent thereby producing a mixed solution, then adding to said mixed solution an ammonia-alkaline ammonium carbonate solution thereby inducing precipitation, and separating and drying the precipitate.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
110 words
A method for the manufacture of a powder composition for cordierite, which comprises preparing water containing a water-soluble magnesium salt, a water-soluble aluminum salt, and at least one silicon source selected from the group consisting of (a) an organic silicon compound and (b) at least one member selected from the group consisting of finely divided silicon oxide, silica gel, and silica sol in amounts calculated to correspond to a cordierite percentage composition as Mg, Al, and Si, mixing this water with a water-soluble organic solvent thereby producing a mixed solution, then adding to said mixed solution an ammonia-alkaline ammonium carbonate solution thereby inducing precipitation, and separating and drying the precipitate.
Claim 3
Independent Claim
70 words
A method for the manufacture of a powder composition for cordierite, which comprises, preparing an aqueous solution having dissolved therein a water-soluble magnesium salt and a water-soluble aluminum salt, then adding to said aqueous solution a water-soluble organic solvent, and further adding thereto first an organic silicon compound and then an acid, with said salts and organic silicon compound used in amounts calculated to correspond to a cordierite percentage composition.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
70 words
A method for the manufacture of a powder composition for cordierite, which comprises, preparing an aqueous solution having dissolved therein a water-soluble magnesium salt and a water-soluble aluminum salt, then adding to said aqueous solution a water-soluble organic solvent, and further adding thereto first an organic silicon compound and then an acid, with said salts and organic silicon compound used in amounts calculated to correspond to a cordierite percentage composition.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
95 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein the mixed solution of the water containing Mg, Al, and Si in the proportions corresponding to a cordierite percentage composition and the water-soluble organic solvent is produced by preparing an aqueous solution having dissolved therein a water-soluble magnesium salt, a water-soluble aluminum salt, and at least one member selected from the group consisting of finely divided silicon oxide, silica sol, and silica gel, and then adding to said aqueous solution a water-soluble organic solvent, with said salts and silicon oxide used in amounts calculated to give said proportions.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
32 words
The method according to claim 1, 2 or 3, wherein the water-soluble organic solvent is at least one member selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, propanol, acetone, and ethylene glycol.
