OPTIMIZATION OF ZERO-PGM CATALYST SYSTEMS ON METALLIC SUBSTRATES

摘要

Present disclosure provides a novel process for optimization of Zero-PGM catalyst systems using metallic substrate. Deposition of a homogeneous and well-adhered layer of catalyst on the metallic substrate may be enabled by the selection of a washcoat loading resulting from variation of metal loadings. Characterization of catalysts may be performed using a plurality of catalytic tests, including but not limited to washcoating adherence test, back pressure test, inspection of textural characteristics, and catalyst activity. Optimization may be applied to a plurality of metallic substrates of different geometries and cell densities.
