TWC performances of honeycomb-coated Pd catalysts supported on 10Al 2 O 3 · 2B 2 O 3 (Al 20 B 4 O 36 , 10A2B) and its Fe-substituted analogue (FeAl 19 B 4 O 36 , Fe-10A2B) were studied using simulated exhaust gas mixtures. A monolayercoated honeycomb containing Pd/10A2B was able to achieve higher conversion of CO, C 3 H 6 and NO in stoichiometric gas mixtures after the light-off temperature compared to a honeycomb containing Pd/γ-Al 2 O 3 . Bilayer-coated honeycombs comprising a top Rh layer (Rh/CeO 2 -ZrO 2 ) and a bottom Pd layer (Pd/10A2B or Pd/γ-Al 2 O 3 ) with varying Rh:Pd ratios were evaluated under stoichiometric conditions. The Rh loading in the top layer could be decreased while preserving higher levels of conversion at 400°C when Pd/10A2B was used as opposed to Pd/γ-Al 2 O 3 . Another monolayer-coated honeycomb comprising Pd/Fe-10A2B demonstrated higher NO conversion under fuel-rich conditions compared to conventional Pd catalysts that were loaded on 10A2B, γ-Al 2 O 3 and Pd/CeO 2 -ZrO 2 . Pd/Fe-10A2B promoted the conversion of NO to NH 3 because CO-H 2 O and subsequent NO-H 2 reactions were accelerated.
