In this work, an advanced Rh/CeO2–ZrO2 (Rh/CZ) three-way catalyst was synthesized with the assistanceof monoethanolamine. Compared with conventional Rh/CZ, the dispersion and oxidation state of Rhspecies, as well as the hydrothermal aging resistance are remarkably modified. That is, upon agingtreatment, conventional Rh/CZ undergoes severe agglomeration of Rh species and formation of largeamount of reduction-resistive RhO2, resulting in serious catalyst deactivation. Fortunately, after theintroduction of monoethanolamine, the sintering of Rh species and transformation into inactive RhO2upon aging are effectively suppressed. Consequently, improved reducibility and advanced three-waycatalytic activity are achieved for the modified catalyst.
