For Lexus LS460 LS600h Direct Fit Catalytic Converter

The main component of the ceramic carrier is iolite, which is usually extruded, dried and sintered at high temperatures using ceramic materials. The ceramic carrier is observed as a honeycomb entity from a cross-section, and the wall thickness is very thin. The aim is to maximize the use of the existing volume to increase the chemical reaction area of the catalyst reaction bed, and also to prevent the thermal degradation of the catalyst. In order for the catalytic converter gas stream to have a larger surface flow area, the carrier is usually made into a honeycomb with very thin wall thickness to make full use of the limited space
