Ceramic Substrate Technology for Automotive Catalysts

Ceramic catalyst supports have played an important part in the successful application of catalyst technology to automotive emission control. They have been scientifically tailored to withstand the severe conditions present in engine exhaust. They provide the right kind of inert, durable surface to support the active catalyst. And, best of all: these ceramics are cheap, the raw materials are available, and they can be produced in automotive production volumes.
