Stringent emission standards have strongly affected the requirement for catalysts and catalytic converters. Since considerable emphasis is placed on cold-start performance, catalysts with lower density and higher oxidation activity at lower temperatures are required. Monolithic catalysts have been extensively evaluated in low-emission vehicles. This paper identifies the key phenomena associated with overtemperature and emission breakthrough problems in platinum monolithic converters.
