Exhaust gas purification catalyst
Provided is a novel exhaust gas purification catalyst, which uses a Cu-based delafossite oxide, capable of increasing the exhaust gas purification performance compared to the case of using the Cu-based delafossite oxide alone. Proposed is an exhaust gas purification catalyst comprising a delafossite-type oxide represented by a general formula ABO 2 and an inorganic porous material, wherein Cu is contained in the A site of the general formula of the delafossite oxide, one or two or more elements selected from the group consisting of Mn, Al, Cr, Ga, Fe, Co, Ni, In, La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Y, V, and Ti are contained in the B site thereof, and Cu is contained in 3 to 30% relative to the total content (mass) of the delafossite-type oxide and the inorganic porous material.
1. An exhaust gas purification catalyst, comprising a delafossite-type oxide represented by a general formula ABO 2 and an inorganic porous material,
wherein Cu is comprised in the A site of the general formula of the delafossite-type oxide, one or two or more elements selected from the group consisting of Mn, Al, Cr, Ga, Fe, Co, Ni, In, La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Y, V, and Ti are comprised in the B site thereof, and
Cu is comprised in 3 to 30% relative to the total content (mass) of the delafossite-type oxide and the inorganic porous material.
2. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein the content (mass) ratio of the delafossite-type oxide to the inorganic porous material is 10:90 to 70:30.
3. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of an average particle diameter (D50) of the delafossite-type oxide to the average particle diameter (D50) of the inorganic porous material is 10:90 to 85:15.
4. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein one or two or more elements selected from the group consisting of Mn, Al, Cr, and Ga are comprised in the B site of the general formula.
5. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein only Mn is comprised in the B site of the general formula or Mn and one or two or more elements selected from the group consisting of Al, Cr, and Ga are comprised therein.
6. The exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 , wherein Mn and one or two or more elements selected from the group consisting of Al, Cr, and Ga are comprised in the B site of the general formula, and the atomic ratio of the content of Mn to the total content of Al, Cr, and Ga in the B site is 10:90 to 90:10.
7. The exhaust gas purification catalyst, having a configuration in which the exhaust gas purification catalyst according to claim 1 is supported on a substrate made of metal or ceramics.
