Abstract

The present invention relates to an exhaust gas cleaning catalyst, and aiming at providing a catalyst which has a higher catalytic activity than that of conventional catalysts and, in particular, a strong ability to oxidize nitrogen monoxide. The present invention relates to an exhaust gas cleaning catalyst whose catalytic component is supported on a carrier, characterized in that the catalytic component is platinum colloid which has an average particle size of 80 nm to 120 nm, a particle size D20, a 20% cumulative particle size distribution from smaller particle size side, of 50 nm or more, and a particle size D90, a 90% cumulative particle size distribution from smaller particle size side, of 200 nm or less. The exhaust gas cleaning catalyst of the present invention has a high catalytic activity for cleaning exhaust gases and, in particular, a strong ability to oxidize nitrogen monoxide.
