Abstract: The present invention discloses an exhaust gas catalyst for reducing the pollutant release containing in the exhaust gas. The catalyst includes a primary-core support carrier composed of gamma-phase aluminum oxide. The core-carrier is coated with Y.sub.2 O.sub.3 and ZrO.sub.2 such that the heat resistance is greatly improved. A two-layer active catalytic structure is formed over the core-carrier. An inner catalytic layer is formed with composition active catalytic elements with approximate weight ratios of La:Ce:Mn:Co:Pd:=10-15:10-15:6-10:6-10:0.1-0.3. An outer catalytic layer is then coated over the inner catalytic layer. The outer catalytic layer comprises catalytic active elements. The weight ratio of the active catalytic elements are Y:La:Zr:Cu:Cr:V:Pd:=1-3:2-6:2-6:6-10:10-15:2-6:0.1-0.3.
