Abstract

A catalyst washcoat is provided having a molecular sieve with a CHA crystal structure; about 0.5 to about 5.0 mol % phosphorus; and SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 in a mole ratio of about 5 to about 40. The washcoat includes one or more promoters or stabilizers, and may be applied to a monolith substrate to produce a catalytically active article.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for reducing NOx in an exhaust gas comprising contacting the gas with a catalyst for a time and temperature sufficient to reduce the level of NOx compounds in the gas, wherein the catalyst is a catalyst comprising a composition comprising a molecular sieve material having a CHA framework, wherein the framework consists of periodic building units having 36 interlinked T-atoms selected from the group consisting of aluminum, silicon, and phosphorous, and wherein said molecular sieve material has a mean phosphorous concentration of about 0.5 to about 1.5 atoms per periodic building unit.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said mean phosphorus concentration is about 1.0 to about 1.5 atoms per periodic building unit.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said molecular sieve material has a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least about 10.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein said molecular sieve material has a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least about 10 and an Al:P ratio of greater than about 1.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein said molecular sieve material has a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least about 10 and an Al:P ratio of greater than about 10.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein said molecular sieve material has a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least about 10 and an Al:P ratio of greater than about 100.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein said phosphorus is connected to at least a portion of said aluminum via oxygen bridges.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein said molecular sieve material further comprises a non-aluminum base metal.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein said non-aluminum base metal is ion-exchanged.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein said non-aluminum base metal is copper.

11. The method of claim 9 wherein said non-aluminum base metal is iron.

12. An engine exhaust gas treatment system comprising:
a. a catalyst article comprising a catalytically active washcoat on a monolith substrate, wherein the catalytically active washcoat comprises
i. a molecular sieve material having:
1. a CHA framework;
2. about 0.5 to about 5.0 mol % phosphorous based on the total moles of framework silicon, aluminum, and phosphorous in said molecular sieve;
3. SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 in a mol ratio of at least about 10;
4. an aluminum to phosphorous ratio of at least about 1; and
5. about 0.025 to about 5 w/w % of copper and/or iron on an anhydrous molecular sieve basis; and

ii. one or more promoters or stabilizers; and

b. a source of ammonia or urea upstream of said catalyst article.

13. The engine exhaust gas treatment system of claim 12 , wherein the monolith substrate comprises a wall flow filter substrate.

14. The engine exhaust gas treatment system of claim 12 , wherein the monolith substrate comprises a flow-through substrate.

15. The engine exhaust gas treatment system of claim 12 , wherein said molecular sieve comprises about 0.05 to about 1.0 mole percent of framework phosphorus based on the total moles of framework silicon, aluminum, and phosphorus in said molecular sieve.

16. The engine exhaust gas treatment system of claim 12 , wherein said molecular sieve material has a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least about 10 and an Al:P ratio of greater than about 1.

17. The engine exhaust gas treatment system of claim 12 , wherein said molecular sieve material has a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least about 10 and an Al:P ratio of greater than about 10.

18. The engine exhaust gas treatment system of claim 12 , wherein said molecular sieve material has a silica-to-alumina ratio of at least about 10 and an Al:P ratio of greater than about 100.

19. The engine exhaust gas treatment system of claim 12 , wherein said copper or iron is ion exchanged.

20. The engine exhaust gas treatment system of claim 12 , wherein said molecular sieve material contains ion exchanged copper.
