In an open-pored body for filtering and/or catalytic treatment of gases or liquids, having a base structure of a non-metallic material and a metal layer (2) arranged above this, the base structure (1) is composed of a foamed plastic. The metal layer (2) can be, in particular, multi-layered. The plastic of the base structure (1) can contain particle admixtures made of metal. The metal layer (2) or layers (2) are preferably to be applied by electrodeposition after the surface of the base structure has first been made electrically conducting. <IMAGE> |
