Alumina Fiber Felt
The three-way catalytic converter gasket is extensively utilized in the exhaust emission system of vehicles to safeguard and seal the honeycomb ceramic carrier. The CHAL three-way catalytic converter gasket finds its application in gasoline vehicles, specifically for TWC (three-way catalytic converter) and GPF (gasoline particle trap). Additionally, it is employed in diesel vehicles for DOC (diesel oxidation catalyst), DPF (diesel particulate trap), and SCR (selective catalytic reduction).
Product Introduction
The alumina fiber felt is manufactured using high alumina polycrystalline fiber, which contains over 72% alumina. It is a lightweight and high-temperature resistant polycrystalline non-expandable mat material of exceptional quality.

Product Performance Test
Packaging Performance
For the DH series mat, it is recommended to package it with a gap bulk density (GBD) of 0.40g/cm³. The compression behavior of the mat at room temperature is depicted in Figure ①. Users can select the suitable GBD based on the service environment, considering the strength of the substrate and the requirement for mat retention.
Blowout Resistance
The DH series mat is crafted from high-aluminum content fiber and possesses remarkable wind erosion resistance. It exhibits a high level of corrosion resistance, effectively safeguarding the carrier’s integrity under diverse vehicle conditions and mitigating safety concerns arising from operational or installation issues. The test data for simulating the mat packaging section is illustrated in Figure ②.
Anti Aging Performance
The DH series mat exhibits exceptional temperature resistance and can withstand high-temperature environments of up to 1300℃. Figure ③ illustrates the results of an aging resistance test conducted to simulate the mat’s service environment. After undergoing 2000 cycles, the mat retains its high elasticity, with a pressure retention rate of over 90%.
