Abstract:
A catalyst for exhaust gas purification includes (1) a monolithic carrier having passages and (2) palladium-loaded alumina obtained by immersing alumina in a palladium solution and then firing the resulting alumina and loaded on the monolithic carrier as a catalyst layer. In the catalyst, the catalyst layer loaded on the partition walls of the passages of the monolithic carrier has a thickness of 5 to 100 &mgr;m and the palladium/alumina (Pd/Al2O3) weight ratio in the catalyst layer is 0.03 to 0.30. This catalyst is a Pd-only catalyst improved in hydrocarbon purifiability during the cold start of engine.

Abstract:
Moldings based on pyrogenic silicon dioxide with a pore volume of 0.5 to 1.8 ml/g are prepared by homogenizing pyrogenic silicon dioxide with methylhydroxyethyl cellulose, wax and polyethylene glycol with the addition of water, subjecting this mixture to a compounding and shaping process, extruding, optionally cutting the extrudate to the desired length using a cutting device, drying at a temperature of 70° to 150° C. and conditioning for a period of 30 minutes to 10 hours at a temperature of 400° to 1200° C. The moldings may be used as catalysts or catalyst supports for the preparation of vinyl acetate monomer, the hydration of ethylene and the hydration of propylene.
Abstract:
This invention provides a process for the activation of a metallic palladium containing catalyst which is useful for the direct oxidation of hydrogen by oxygen to hydrogen peroxide, by treating the catalyst with an oxidising agent in order to at least partially oxidise the metallic palladium contained in the catalyst to palladium (TT) oxide. The selectivity and yield of the catalyst for hydrogen peroxide are observed to increase substantially and the hydrogen peroxide decomposition activity of the catalyst is drastically reduced.
