Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201306055-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>A copper(II)‐oxide‐based exhaust catalyst</bold> exhibits better activity than Pt‐ and Rh‐nanoparticle catalysts in NO remediation at 175 °C. Following theoretical design, the CuO catalyst is rationally prepared; CuO nanoplates bearing a maximized amount of the active {001} facet are arranged in interleaved layers. A field test using a commercial gasoline engine demonstrates the ability of the catalyst to remove NO from the exhaust of small vehicles. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pghqcc8s5j" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
