“…The metal casing can be produced through the canning process. A thinned wall metal casing is desired [44], as this can allow better heat transfer to the surroundings, to prevent the catalytic converter from reaching temperatures of up to 1000 • C. However, the question of durability and efficiency is considered, as high temperatures can result in deformation of the catalytic converter [45,46].…”

This works aims to provide an understanding on basic chemical kinetics pertaining to three-way catalytic (TWC) converters from an educational perspective, aimed at those novel readers in this field. Rate of reactions and its factors are explained, showcasing that the chosen catalyst is the main factor affecting the overall rate of reaction. Furthermore, this overview revisit insights of the catalytic converter structure and the environmental issues that come along with it. Lastly, the chemical and physical properties of the reactants and products-pollutant and less-toxic gases—are discussed, in order to gather a better understanding of the reactants and products that enters a catalytic converter.
