Catalyst carrier and exhaust gas purifying catalyst
The present invention relates to a catalyst carrier comprising an apatite-type composite oxide and proposes a catalyst carrier capable of improving purification performance of NOx due to improvement of phosphorus poisoning. Proposed is a catalyst carrier which contains a composite oxide that is represented by a composition formula of (LaA) 9.33−δ B 6 O 27.00−γ (wherein, 0.3≦δ≦3.0, 0.0<γ≦6.0; “A” represents one or two or more elements selected from Ba, Pr, Y, Sr, Mg, and Ce; and “B” represents one or two or more elements selected from Si, P, and Fe).
1. A catalyst carrier comprising a composite oxide that is represented by a composition formula of (LaA) 9.33−δ B 6 O 27.00−γ wherein, 0.3≦δ≦3.0, 0.0<γ≦6.0; “A” comprises Ba, Pr, and Y; and “B” represents one or two or more elements selected from Si, P, and Fe.
2. The catalyst carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the element “B” in the composition formula comprises Si.
3. An exhaust gas purifying catalyst comprising the catalyst carrier according to claim 1 and a catalytically active component that exists in the catalyst carrier as a solid solution or is supported on the catalyst carrier.
4. An exhaust gas purifying catalyst having two or more catalyst layers, wherein an upper catalyst layer of the two or more catalyst layers contains the catalyst carrier according to claim 1 and a catalytically active component that exists in the catalyst carrier as a solid solution or is supported on the catalyst carrier.
5. An exhaust gas purifying catalyst comprising the catalyst carrier according to claim 2 and a catalytically active component that exists in the catalyst carrier as a solid solution or is supported on the catalyst carrier.
6. An exhaust gas purifying catalyst having two or more catalyst layers, wherein an upper catalyst layer of the two or more catalyst layers contains the catalyst carrier according to claim 2 and a catalytically active component that exists in the catalyst carrier as a solid solution or is supported on the catalyst carrier.
