Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths: The Role of Rare Earths in Catalysis Volume 29

by K.A. Gschneidner Jr. and LeRoy Eyring

Among the numerous applications of the rare-earth elements, the field of catalysis accounts for a large number. Catalysis represents approximately 20% of the total market sales of rare earths worldwide. As a matter of fact two main applications have been prominent in the last decades: zeolite stabilization for fluid cracking catalysts, and automotive post-combustion catalytic treatment.

The oldest use of rare earths in catalysis deals with the structural...
