Abstract
A method of plugging a permeable porous cellular body comprises: contacting the permeable porous cellular body with a plugging mixture, the permeable porous cellular body defining a plurality of channels; forcing the plugging mixture into the plurality of channels until a maximum, self-limiting, depth of plugging mixture is disposed within the plurality of channels; and maintaining a constant flow rate of the plugging mixture into the plurality of channels until a pressure on the plugging mixture elevates to a predetermined pressure. Alternatively, the method comprises forcing the plugging mixture into the plurality of channels utilizing the application of a constant pressure over time until a maximum, self-limiting, depth of the plugging mixture is disposed within the plurality of channels; and maintaining the constant pressure applied to the plugging mixture until flow of the plugging mixture into the channels decays from an initial flow rate to a predetermined flow rate.
