Abstract

A substrate (11) of an exhaust gas purification catalyst (10) includes inflow-side cells (21), outflow-side cells (22), and porous partition walls (23), each porous partition wall separating the cells (21, 22) from each other. A first catalyst portions (14) is provided at least on a portion of a side of the partition wall (23) that faces the inflow-side cell (21), the portion being located on an upstream side in an exhaust gas flow direction, and a second catalyst portion (15) is provided at least on a portion of a side of the partition wall that faces the outflow-side cell, the portion being located on a downstream side in the exhaust gas flow direction. A first pore volume is greater than a second pore volume, where the first pore volume is a pore volume of pores with a pore size of 10 μm to 18 μm, as measured on the first catalyst portions (14) and the partition walls (23) within a region where the first catalyst portions (14) are provided, and the second pore volume is a pore volume of pores with a pore size of 10 μm to 18 μm, as measured on the second catalyst portions (15) and the partition walls (23) within a region where the second catalyst portions (15) are provided. The first catalyst portion (14) exhibits the peak top of the pore size at between 20 nm and 500 nm.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An exhaust gas purification catalyst comprising: a substrate, and catalyst portions provided in the substrate,
the substrate including:
inflow-side cells, each inflow-side cell being a space having an open end located on an inflow side thereof and a closed end located on an outflow side thereof in an exhaust gas flow direction;
outflow-side cells, each outflow-side cell being a space having a closed end located on an inflow side thereof and an open end located on an outflow side thereof in the exhaust gas flow direction; and
porous partition walls, each porous partition wall separating the inflow-side cell and the outflow-side cell from each other, and

the catalyst portions including:
a first catalyst portion that is provided at least on a portion of a side of that faces the inflow-side cell, the portion being located on an upstream side in the flow direction; and
a second catalyst portion that is provided at least on a portion of a side of the partition wall that faces the outflow-side cell, the portion being located on a downstream side in the flow direction,

wherein, a first pore volume is greater than a second pore volume, where the first pore volume is a pore volume of pores with a pore size of 10 μm to 18 μm, as measured on the first catalyst portions and the partition walls within a region where the first catalyst portions are provided, and where the second pore volume is a pore volume of pores with a pore size of 10 μm to 18 μm, as measured on the second catalyst portions and the partition walls within a region where the second catalyst portions are provided,
the first catalyst portion exhibits a peak top of the pore size at between 20 nm and 500 nm,
the first catalyst portion is present mainly on the surface of the partition wall, and
the second catalyst portion has a configuration such that, in a region extending from the downstream end portion toward the upstream side in the exhaust gas flow direction by a length corresponding to 1/10 of the length of the substrate, the mass of the second catalyst portion present in the inner part of the partition wall is larger than the mass of the second catalyst portion present on the surface of the partition wall.

2. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 ,
wherein a ratio of the second pore volume to the first pore volume is 0.95 or less.

3. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 ,
wherein D90 of metal oxide particles included in the first catalyst portion is 3 μm or greater.
