Abstract

Thermally stable, sulfur-resistant catalysts for the conversion of exhaust gases from internal combustion engines includes an inert, rigid support substrate, e.g., a cellular monolith, coated with a layer of porouse material, the porous material containing alumina, at least one rare earth oxide, and a spinel type compound having a specific surface of at least 50 m.sup.2 /g, and the support substrate having an effective amount of a catalytically active phase impregnated onto the porous coating thereof.
