- the NOx trap evaluation test is carried out as follows:
- each of the NOx traps (first composition and second composition) in powder is loaded into a quartz reactor.
- the powder used has previously been compacted, then ground and sieved so as to isolate the particle size range between 0.125 and 0.250 mm.
- the reaction mixture at the inlet of the reactor has the following composition (by volume) - - NO: 300 vpm
- NO and NOx signals are given by an ECOPHYSICS NOx analyzer, based on the principle of chemiluminescence
- NOx traps The evaluation of NOx traps is carried out by determining the total amount of NOx adsorbed (expressed in mgNO / g of trap or active phase) until the trap phase is saturated The experiment is repeated at different temperatures between 250 ° C. and 500 ° C It is thus possible to determine the optimal temperature zone for the operation of the NOx traps
- Manganese nitrate Mn (N03) 2.4H 2 0 and potassium nitrate KNO3 99.5% are used
- the support used is of the type described in Example 4 of patent application WO 97/43214, that is to say a support based on cerium oxide, zirconium oxide and lanthanum oxide but in the respective proportions by weight relative to the oxides of 72/24/4
- This step consists in depositing the active element Mn in an amount equal to 10 atomic% and calculated as follows
- This step consists in depositing the second active element K in an amount of 10 atomic% and calculated as follows
- the operating protocol is as follows
- Manganese nitrate Mn (N03) 2.4H 2 0 and potassium nitrate KN03 99.5% are used
- the support used is an SB3 Condea alumina which has been stabilized by impregnation with 10 atomic% of Ce and then calcination for 2 hours at 500 ° C.
- the procedure is carried out in two stages for the deposition in the same manner as for the first composition (dry impregnation, pore volume of the support determined with water of 0.8 cm 3 / g) with the elements Mn and K in the same quantities, the first calcination taking place at 500 ⁇ C and the second at 800 ° C.
- the composition thus obtained has a BET surface area of 117 m 2 / g.
- NOx trap activity is therefore observed over the entire temperature range between 250 ° C. and 500 ° C. This activity takes place in the absence of precious metal.
