Patent number: 9144783Abstract: A low pressure drop structured packing sheet with diversion windows, which are formed on both crests and troughs. When in the expanded state where the diversion window and packing sheet are flat on the same plane, the diversion window has an opening and a fan-shaped portion, with the area of the opening being 0%-1000% of that of the fan-shaped portion. Two side intersection lines between the fan-shaped portion and packing sheet is symmetrical with respect to a central folding line which divides the fan-shaped portion into a left part and a right part.

Patent number: 8765092Abstract: A non-stoichiometric perovskite oxide having the general chemical formula LaXMnOY, in which the molar ratio of lanthanum to manganese (“X”) ranges from 0.85 to 0.95, can be used in particle form as an oxidation catalyst to oxidize NO to NO2 in an exhaust aftertreatment system for a hydrocarbon-fueled engine. The oxygen content (“Y”) fluctuates with variations in the molar ratio of lanthanum to manganese but generally falls somewhere in the range of 3.0 to 3.30. The crystal lattice adjustments spurred by the non-stoichiometric molar ratio of lanthanum to manganese are believed responsible for an enhanced NO oxidative activity relative to similar perovskite oxides with a higher molar ratio of lanthanum and manganese.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2012Date of Patent: July 1, 2014Assignees: GM Global Technology Operations LLC, Tianjin UniversityInventors: Gongshin Qi, Wei Li, Xinquan Wang, Meiqing Shen
