Product Profile of Performance Materials For Automotive Emissions Control

Performance Materials for Automotive Emissions Control comprise of cerium that is a rare earth and zirconium oxides in varying proportions, with the addition of small quantities of other rare earth oxides such as lanthanum, neodymium and praseodymium. These Performance Materials offer good thermal stability for robust and long-life catalysts. These Performance Materials offer stable surface area and contact between the exhaust gas and the catalyst is greatly enhanced, even after ageing. These Performance Materials are designed with high and accessible oxygen storage capacity. These Performance Materials are extensively used in a number of automotive emission-control catalyst technologies. Performance Materials for Automotive Emissions Control are used for gasoline vehicles and diesel vehicles.

Applications of Performance Materials for Automotive Emissions Control:

• Used in a number of automotive emission-control catalyst technologies

• Gasoline vehicles: Three-way catalysts [TWC] and gasoline particulate filters [GPF]

• Diesel vehicles: Lean NOx-Trap [LNT] catalysts, Diesel oxidation catalysts and Diesel particulate filters
