  • Method for the combustion of carbonaceous fuels utilizing high temperature stable catalysts
    Patent number: 4088435
    Abstract: Catalysts having good high temperature stability which are particularly useful for selected high temperature reactions are disclosed as are methods for their preparation and use. The catalytically-active materials include platinum group metal deposited on a catalytic slip or composite which contains a mixture of alumina, selected VIB metal oxides, and a metallic oxide or oxide mixture wherein the metal or metals are selected IIA, IVA, and IIA-IVA mixtures, selected IIA and IVB mixtures and selected IVA and IVB mixtures. The slips or carrier compositions are calcined at a temperature of at least 500.degree. C. before deposition of platinum group metal and characterized by having a surface area of at least 20 m.sup.2 /g after calcination at a temperature of 1200.degree. C. for 2 hours.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 5, 1976
    Date of Patent: May 9, 1978
    Assignee: Engelhard Minerals & Chemicals Corporation
    Inventors: Saul G. Hindin, George R. Pond
  • High temperature stable catalyst composition and method for its preparation
    Patent number: 4056489
    Abstract: Catalysts having good high temperature stability which are particularly used for selected high temperature reactions are disclosed as are methods for their preparation and use. The catalytically-active materials include platinum group metal deposited on a catalyst slip or composite which contains a mixture of alumina, a rare earth metal oxide, and a mixture of metallic oxides of selected IIA and IVA metals and selected VIB metals. The slips or carrier compositions are calcined at a temperature of at least 500.degree. C. before deposition of platinum group metal and characterized by having a surface area of at least 20 m.sup.2 /g after calcination at a temperature of 1200.degree. C. for 2 hours.
