Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is an exhaust gas purification catalyst improved in warm-up performance while suppressing HC poisoning of a noble metal in an atmosphere in which an air-fuel ratio (A/F) is rich and the HC poisoning easily occurs. The present disclosure relates to an exhaust gas purification catalyst that includes a substrate and a catalyst coating layer coated on the substrate. The catalyst coating layer includes a lower coating layer coated on the substrate and an upper coating layer coated on the lower coating layer. The lower coating layer contains a noble metal. The upper coating layer contains Pd and/or Pt. The Pd and/or Pt contained in the upper coating layer is supported on Al 2 O 3 by a certain amount or more. A thickness of the upper coating layer is adjusted.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An exhaust gas purification catalyst comprising: a substrate; and a catalyst coating layer coated on the substrate, wherein the catalyst coating layer comprises a lower coating layer coated on the substrate and an upper coating layer coated on the lower coating layer, wherein the lower coating layer contains a noble metal, wherein the upper coating layer contains Pd and/or Pt, wherein the Pd and/or Pt contained in the upper coating layer is supported on Al 2 O 3 by 80 weight % or more of a total weight of the Pd and/or Pt contained in the upper coating layer, wherein the content of Al 2 O 3 supporting Pd and/or Pt contained in the upper coating layer is 1.2 g to 18 g relative to the substrate capacity of 1 L, and wherein a ratio of a thickness of the upper coating layer to a thickness of the lower coating layer (upper coating layer/lower coating layer) is 0.2 or less. 2. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein the Pd and/or Pt contained in the upper coating layer is supported on Al 2 O 3 by 90 weight % or more of the total weight. 3. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein the Pd and/or Pt contained in the upper coating layer is supported on Al 2 O 3 by 95 weight % or more of the total weight. 4. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the upper coating layer is 20 μm or less.
