TLDR
The general trend has been one of increasingly complex catalyst formulations in response to increasingly stringent emission standards as discussed by the authors, but with greater emphasis on optimizing catalyst formulations for lean-burn applications and reducing catalyst cost and complexity without sacrificing performance.

Size-dependent self-limiting oxidation of free palladium clusters.

TL;DR: Temperature-dependent gas phase ion trap experiments performed under multicollision conditions andplementary first-principles density functional theory simulations elucidate the details of the size-dependent bonding of oxygen to the small palladium clusters and are able to assign the pronounced occurrence of Pd(x)O4(+) complexes to a dissociatively chemisorbed bridging oxygen atomic structure which impedes the Chemisorption of further oxygen molecules.

Thermal Aging Behavior of Pt-only TWC Converters Under Simulated Exhaust Conditions: Effect of Rare Earths (CeO2, La2O3) and Alkali (Na) Modifiers

TL;DR: In this article, the feasibility to design monometallic (Pt-only), low metal loading (0.1 wt% Pt) three-way catalytic converters (TWCs), with comparable catalytic efficiency and thermostability to that of commercial bimetallic Pt/Rh TWCs has been explored.

Physicochemical, Surface, and Catalytic Properties of Pure and Ceria-Doped Manganese/Alumina Catalysts

TL;DR: In this paper, pure and CeO2-doped Mn/Al mixed oxides were prepared by the wet impregnation method using finely powdered alumina, manganese and cerium nitrates.

Effect of perturbations in the exhaust gas composition on three-way catalyst light off

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of transient exhaust gas composition on the light-off temperature of a commercial three-way catalytic converters (3WCC) by using a dynamic mathematical model for 3WCC simulation.

Rh-Loaded CeO2-ZrO2 Solid-Solutions as Highly Efficient Oxygen Exchangers: Dependence of the Reduction Behavior and the Oxygen Storage Capacity on the Structural-Properties

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that incorporation of ZrO2 into a solid solution with CeO2 strongly promotes bulk reduction of the Rh-loaded solid solutions in comparison to a Rh/CeO2 sample.

Twenty-five years after introduction of automotive catalysts: what next?

TL;DR: The union of catalysts and the automobile has been one of the greatest successes of heterogeneous catalysis over the last 25 years as mentioned in this paper, and there will be continued research and development activity focused also on downstream applications (i.e. exhaust emission aftertreatment), especially for fuelefficient, lean-burn vehicles, both diesel and spark-ignited.
