Abstract
A catalytic converter includes a catalyst. The catalyst includes a non-modified metal oxide support and platinum group metal (PGM) complexes atomically dispersed on the non-modified metal oxide support. The PGM complexes include a PGM species selected from the group consisting of an atom of a platinum group metal, a cluster including from 2 atoms to less than 10 atoms of the platinum group metal, and combinations thereof. An alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal is bonded to the PGM species. The alkali or alkaline earth metal is part of a structure including oxygen atoms and hydrogen atoms.
