Publication number: 20240390878Abstract: Disclosed are a grain boundary and surface-doped rare earth manganese-zirconium composite compound as well as a preparation method and use thereof. A rare earth manganese oxide with a special structure is formed at grain boundary and surface of a rare earth zirconium-based oxide by a grain boundary doping method so as to increase oxygen defects at the grain boundary and the surface, thereby increasing the amount of active oxygen, improving the catalytic activity of the rare earth manganese-zirconium composite compound, inhibiting high-temperature sintering of the rare earth manganese-zirconium composite compound, and improving the NO catalytic oxidation capability. When the rare earth manganese-zirconium composite compound is applied to a catalyst, the consumption of noble metal can be greatly reduced.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 6, 2024Publication date: November 28, 2024Applicants: GRIREM HI-TECH CO., LTD., GRIREM ADVANCED MATERIALS CO., LTD., Rare Earth Functional Materials (Xiong 'an) Innovation Center Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yongqi ZHANG, Xiaowei HUANG, Weixin ZHAO, Xinlin PENG, Zheng ZHAO, Yongke HOU, Zhizhe ZHAI, Qiang ZHONG

Publication number: 20240359164Abstract: Disclosed are a grain boundary and surface-loaded noble metal catalyst, a preparation method and an application thereof. The noble metal is dispersed at the grain boundary and surface of alumina and/or a rare earth manganese-zirconium composite oxide to form a multiphase interface, which achieves the following beneficial technical effects: firstly, the multiphase interface has a larger steric hindrance and a stronger anchoring effect, which can inhibit the migration, agglomeration, and growth of the noble metal at high temperatures, increase the high-temperature stability and catalytic performance of the noble metal, and reduce the usage of the noble metal; secondly, the multiphase interface exhibits a synergistic catalytic effect, which can reduce the activation energy of lattice oxygen and increase the quantity of active oxygen, thereby enhancing the NO oxidation and low-temperature catalytic activity.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2024Publication date: October 31, 2024Applicants: GRIREM HI-TECH CO., LTD., Rare Earth Functional Materials (Xiong 'an) Innovation Center Co., Ltd., GRIREM ADVANCED MATERIALS CO., LTD.Inventors: Zheng ZHAO, Xiaowei HUANG, Yongqi ZHANG, Yongke HOU, Zongyu FENG, Weixin ZHAO, Yang XU

Publication number: 20230321631Abstract: The present disclosure provides a cerium-zirconium-based composite oxide with a core-shell structure and a preparation method thereof, a catalyst system using the cerium-zirconium-based composite oxide, a catalytic converter for purifying tail gas by using the catalyst system, and application of the catalyst system or the catalytic converter in motor vehicle exhaust purification, industrial waste gas treatment or catalytic combustion. In the present invention, the cerium-zirconium-based composite oxide with a core-shell structure oxygen storage material is prepared by a step-by-step precipitation method. On the one hand, yttrium and a part of zirconium and cerium are precipitated on a cerium-zirconium surface, where the post-precipitation of yttrium is to segregate yttrium ions (Y3+) on a grain boundary surface, thus reducing lattice surface energy, pinning the grain boundary surface, making the migration of the grain boundary surface difficult, controlling the growth of grains.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 27, 2021Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: Yongqi ZHANG, Zheng ZHAO, Xiaowei HUANG, Yongke HOU, Meisheng CUI, Zhizhe ZHAI, Zongyu FENG, Juanyu YANG, Yang XU
