Y2O3 is effective additive for Rh/ZrO2 three-way catalyst. Y2O3/ZrO2 support can keep the Rh species in catalytically active reducing state. Rh in Rh/Pr6O11/ZrO2 is stabilized in oxidizing state under reaction conditions. Rh/Y2O3/ZrO2 still showed the highest activity in lean/rich perturbation condition.
