Abstract

See full text

A catalyst ceramic body employing a directly supporting carrier, wherein particle growth due to aggregation of the catalyst particles during loading of the catalyst is suppressed to yield fine particles, thereby improving the purification performance. According to the invention, the base material is cordierite with a portion of its constituent elements substituted, and when a catalyst component such as Pt is to be supported on a ceramic carrier capable of directly supporting a catalyst component on the introduced substituting elements, a precursor for the Pt is loaded and then sintered in a reducing atmosphere. Using a reducing atmosphere allows the metallization temperature to be as low as about 400.degree. C., thereby reducing thermal vibration and suppressing aggregation in order to achieve an effect of reducing the mean particle size of the catalyst to about 100 nm or smaller.
