Abstract
Abstract A method is provided for producing a catalyst and a carrier therefor in the form of sheet or honeycomb. The method comprises: beating a heat-resistant fiber such as asbesto fiber in water to form a slurry; mixing the slurry with a catalytically active agent, a carrier material therefor and/or their precursors to fix such materials in the fiber, thus forming a stock; and forming the stock into a sheet and drying the same. The sheet thus obtained may be formed into a honeycomb structure with an improved adhesive.
