Abstract
Passive NOx adsorption (PNA) compositions have a formula Pd—NiFe2O4 wherein Pd represents a palladium component, such as palladium oxide, that is adsorbed on surfaces of the nickel ferrite. Such compositions can be synthesized by wet impregnation of nickel ferrite with a palladium salt, and exhibit efficient NOx adsorption at low temperature, with NOx desorption occurring predominantly at high temperature. Two-stage NOx abatement catalysts, effective under engine cold start conditions, include a PNA composition upstream from an NOx conversion catalyst.
