Title: Remarkable improvement in low temperature performance of model three-way catalysts through solution atomic layer deposition

Abstract

The development of three-way catalysts with improved low temperature activity is essential for automotive catalysis. Here, we show that solution atomic layer deposition (SALD) of titania or zirconia promoters on alumina supports lowers the light-off temperatures of rhodium-based catalysts by 50–150 °C compared to a commercial benchmark three-way catalyst. X-ray diffraction, scanning transmission electron microscopy–electron energy loss spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance UV–visible spectroscopy and X-ray absorption near edge structure results indicate that titania incorporated by SALD at one monolayer loading is present primarily as atomically disperse 5-coordinate Ti⁴⁺ species. These species persist after exposure to steam and corrosive gases at temperatures up to 960 °C. Zirconia incorporated onto alumina by SALD is present as few-nanometre oxide particles and supports a three-way catalyst activity that is superior to that of Rh on either alumina or zirconia. Lastly, our results show that molecularly precise synthesis can lead to robust promotion of precious metal activity and provide a promising path towards reducing emissions from gasoline vehicles.

Three-way catalyst for automotive emission control and method of making the catalyst

Patent Chattha, M S ; Watkins, W L.H. ; Gandhi, H S

This patent describes a three-way catalyst for automotive emissions, the catalyst being applied to a mechanical carrier having a support comprised substantially of alumina. It comprises: discontinuous lanthanium oxide on the support; catalytic precious metal of palladium and rhodium with rhodium being present in an amount no greater than 10% by weight of the precious metal and palladium constituting at least 60% by weight of the precious metal, the catalytic precious metal being discontinuously supported on or about the support; and titania discontinuously residing on or about the catalytic precious metal and lanthana, the titania being present in an amountmore » of 0.1-8.0% by weight of the catalyst.« less
Characterization of model three-way catalysts

Journal Article Rogemond, E ; Frety, R ; Perrichon, V - Journal of Catalysis

The accessible metallic area measured by hydrogen chemisorption on model ceria-alumina supported platinum or(and) rhodium catalysts has been compared to the results obtained in cyclohexane aromatization activity tests. The benzene formation was studied at 573 K after reduction by hydrogen at the same temperature. The turnover frequency, calculated on the basis of hydrogen chemisorption data, was found to depend on the type of support, ceria or alumina, in interaction with the precious metal particles. However, for the catalysts supported on ceria-alumina, the activity per metallic platinum or rhodium site was almost the same for both fresh catalysts or after hydrothermalmore »« less

The oxidation state and catalytic activity of supported rhodium

Journal Article Oh, S E ; Carpenter, J E - J. Catal.; (United States)

Rhodium is a common constituent of three-way catalysts used for the simultaneous conversion of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and hydrocarbons in automobile exhaust. The literature data indicate that supported rhodium can form surface oxides quite readily in an oxidizing gaseous environment. Moreover, the oxidation state of rhodium has been reported to influence the catalytic activity. Such characteristics of supported rhodium have important implications in three-way automotive emission control, because the exhaust composition surrounding three-way catalysts fluctuates between net-oxidizing and net-reducing conditions. This paper describes the results of laboratory experiments aimed at investigating how the intrinsic properties of an alumina-supported rhodiummore »« less
