Abstract: Provided is a catalyst comprising (a) a zeolite material having a mean crystal size of at least about 0.5 ?m, having a CHA framework that contains silicon and aluminum, and having a silica-to-alumina mole ratio (SAR) of about 10 to about 25; and (b) an extra-framework promoter metal (M) disposed in said zeolite material as free and/or exchanged metal, wherein the extra-framework promoter metal is copper, iron, and mixtures thereof, and is present in a promoter metal-to-aluminum atomic ratio (M:Al) of about 0.10 to about 0.24 based on the framework aluminum; and optionally comprising (c) at least about 1 weight percent of cerium in said zeolite material, based on the total weight of the zeolite, wherein said cerium is present in a form selected from exchanged cerium ions, monomeric ceria, oligomeric ceria, and combinations thereof, provided that said oligomeric ceria has a particle size of less than 5 ?m.

Abstract: A catalyst comprising: (a) a first layer comprising an oxidizing catalyst having an effective PGM loading such that oxidation of hydrocarbons generates sufficient heat to regenerate soot, wherein said effective amount of PGM is greater than about 10 g/ft3; and (b) a second layer adjacent to said first layer and comprising a reducing catalyst to selectively reduce NOx.

Abstract: An exhaust gas catalyst especially for small two-stroke gasoline engines comprises a platinum group metal deposited on a refractory metal honeycomb support and is provided with a diffusion barrier coating which reduces conversion without reducing light-off temperatures. Prolonged catalyst life is shown when exposed to misfire conditions.
