Patent ID: 11821349

Abstract:
An exhaust gas purification catalyst including an alkaline-earth metal carried on a porous carrier in a highly dispersed state. The catalyst layer of the exhaust gas purification catalyst has an alkaline-earth metal carrying region including a porous carrier, Pt, and a sulfuric acid salt of at least one alkaline-earth metal carried on the porous carrier, wherein a value of RAe/Pt is 0.5 or more, where RAe/Pt represents the Pearson's correlation coefficient calculated using α and β in each pixel obtained by, for a cross section of the region, performing the area analysis by FE-EPMA under the conditions of: pixel size 0.34 μm×0.34 μm; and number of measured pixels 256×256; and measuring an intensity (α: cps) of a characteristic X ray of an element (Ae) of the alkaline-earth metal and an intensity (β: cps) of a characteristic X ray of Pt for each pixel.
