Abstract:
Described is a process for the preparation of a catalyst comprising the steps of: (i) providing one or more support materials; (ii) providing one or more polymers on the support material; and (iii) providing one or more metals on the one or more supported polymers; wherein in step (ii) the one or more polymers do not comprise cross-linked polymers and/or polymers which have been reacted with a cross-linking agent. Also described is a catalyst obtained or obtainable according to said process, as well as the use of the catalyst, in particular in a method for the treatment of automobile engine exhaust gas.
Abstract:
A layered diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) comprises: a) a carrier substrate; b) a diesel oxidation catalytic material comprising bl)a first layer located on the carrier substrate, the first layer comprising palladium impregnated on a support material comprising ceria in an amount of at least 45 weight% based on the total weight of the support material, and optionally comprising platinum; b2) a second layer located on the first layer, the second layer comprising palladium and platinum each impregnated on a support material comprising a metal oxide; wherein the platinum to palladium weight ratio of the first layer is lower than the platinum to palladium weight ratio of the second layer.
Abstract:
Provided is a catalyst composition, in particular a diesel oxidation catalyst, for the treatment of exhaust gas emissions, such as the oxidation of unburned hydrocarbons (HC), and carbon monoxide (CO). More particularly, the present invention is directed to a catalyst structure comprising at least two, specifically three distinct layers, at least one of which contains an oxygen storage component (OSC) that is present in a layer separate from the majority of the platinum group metal (PGM) components, such as palladium and platinum.
Abstract:
Diesel oxidation catalysts, catalytic articles, methods of making catalytic articles, emissions treatment systems and methods of treating an exhaust gas stream using the catalytic articles for the treatment of exhaust gas emissions, such as the oxidation of unburned hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) are described. Specific catalytic articles comprising a substrate with a first washcoat layer comprising greater than or equal to about 2% by weight palladium dispersed on a ceria support and a second washcoat layer comprising a platinum group metal and a refractory metal oxide are described.
