摘要:
The invention relates to new compositions based on ceric oxide having an improved oxygen storage capacity, these compositions being characterized in that they contain, besides ceric oxide, at least one oxide of another metallic element M chosen from the group consisting of iron, bismuth, nickel, tin and chromium or one of their mixtures, this oxide preferably being in solid solution with the abovementioned cerium oxide. The process of synthesis of these compositions consists in first of all preparing an intimate mixture between (i) a ceric oxide or a ceric hydroxide and (ii) at least one additive consisting of a hydroxide or a salt, thermally decomposable to an oxide, of the metallic element M, and in then calcining this mixture so as to obtain the desired composition based on oxides. The compositions according to the invention are particularly useful in the manufacture of catalysts and/or catalyst supports, especially those intended for treating exhaust gases from internal combustion engines.
摘要:
Thermally stable ceric oxide-based compositions, well suited as catalysts/catalyst supports for a wide variety of reactions, notably for the catalytic conversion of exhaust gases emanating from internal combustion engines, comprise particulates of immixture of a major amount of ceric oxide with at least one other metal oxide of magnesium, gallium, boron, scandium, or mixture thereof, and having a specific surface greater than 10 m.sup.2 /g after calcination at 800.degree.
