Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of forming a templated casting involves incorporating a liquid feedstock into the channels of a honeycomb substrate to form a feedstock-laden substrate, and directionally solidifying the liquid feedstock within the channels.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A templated casting comprising: a honeycomb substrate having a plurality of channels; and a directionally-ordered cast structure formed within the channels, wherein the cast structure comprises one or more pores aligned in a direction substantially parallel to the channels. 2. The casting according to claim 1 , wherein the cast structure is aligned in a direction substantially parallel to the channels. 3. The casting according to claim 1 , wherein the pores have an aspect ratio greater than 1.
