Platinum / Rhodium Catalyst Gauzes - Weaving

Platinum / Rhodium Catalyst Gauzes - Weaving

• A large number of wires in the transverse direction (weft wires)


• A large number of wires in the longitudinal direction (warp wise)


• Flat, rectangular two-dimensional structure


• Wires are essentially straight


• The wires are tightly pressed together at crossover points (shadowing effect)


• The structure is fragile and can crack


• No compensatory deformation possible


• Limited scope for new variations


• The manufacturing process is slow and inflexible
