Patent attributes
There is provided a method for manufacturing cell structures having a plurality of cells divided by porous partition walls and extending from one end face to the other end face to function as fluid passages. Dry mass of each of a plurality of honeycomb-shaped cell structure precursors is measured, and at least one end face of each of the cell structure precursors is subjected to machining according to the dry mass measured to obtain a plurality of cell structures having a uniform dry mass. The method can suppress excessive use of a catalyst component to reduce production costs and uniformalize the amount of a catalyst component carried on the structures.
