Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure provides an exhaust gas purification catalyst improved in OSC performance while maintaining an exhaust gas purification performance, which comprises a substrate and at least one catalyst layer formed on the substrate, wherein an uppermost catalyst layer contains a catalyst metal, a first OSC material having a pyrochlore structure, and a second OSC material having a higher oxygen storage/release rate than the first OSC material, wherein the uppermost catalyst layer consists of an upstream catalyst layer and a downstream catalyst layer, and wherein a proportion of a mass of the second OSC material based on a total mass of the first OSC material and the second OSC material is in a specific range in each of the upstream catalyst layer and the downstream catalyst layer.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An exhaust gas purification catalyst comprising: a substrate; and a catalyst layer which is formed on the substrate and consists of one layer, wherein the catalyst layer contains a catalyst metal, a first OSC material having a pyrochlore structure, and a second OSC material having a higher oxygen storage/release rate than the first OSC material, and wherein the catalyst layer consists of an upstream catalyst layer formed in an upstream side in a flow direction of an exhaust gas, and a downstream catalyst layer formed in a downstream side in the flow direction of the exhaust gas, wherein a proportion of a mass of the second OSC material based on a total mass of the first OSC material and the second OSC material is from 0.55 to 0.73 in the upstream catalyst layer, wherein a proportion of a mass of the second OSC material based on a total mass of the first OSC material and the second OSC material is from 0.27 to 0.55 in the downstream catalyst layer, and wherein the catalyst metal is Rh. 2. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein the first OSC material and the second OSC material are ceria-zirconia based composite oxides. 3. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein the upstream catalyst layer is formed in a range of from 40% to 80% of an entire length of the substrate from an end portion in the upstream side, and the downstream catalyst layer is formed in a range of from 40% to 80% of the entire length of the substrate from an end portion in the downstream side.
