Pt-K/Al2O3 (Pt 1%; K 5.4% wt/wt) catalyst active for the simultaneous Diesel particulate oxidation and NOx reduction have been characterized in comparison with 1% Pt/Al2O3 catalyst. IR spectra of adsorbed CO at 140 degrees C and at room temperature allowed the detection of oxidized Pt centers and of their very strong oxidizing ability. TPD and IR spectra of adsorbed CO2 allowed to characterize the basicity of the samples. The data indicate that Pt centers lie in close proximity of potassium oxide species generating basicity.
