Abstract A series of model NOx storage-reduction (NSR) catalysts with different Rh/Pt weight ratios were prepared independently by wet impregnation and then mechanically mixed to investigate the effect of the Rh/Pt weight ratio on the overall NOx removal efficiency and nitrogen yield. XRD, EDS and H2-TPR studies indicated the coexistence of BaCO3, MnOx and BaMnO3 phases in the catalysts. Increasing Rh/Pt weight ratio enhanced NOx reduction under the rich phase, and improved overall N2-yield in the kinetic regime of NO conversion, but shows a negative effect in the equilibrium-limited regime above 400 °C.
