Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 25
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
A process for preparing a catalyst which comprises coating a support with a first solution containing a first metal salt selected from the group consisting of a salt of platinum and palladium, calcining, further coating the calcined base with a second solution containing a second metal salt selected from the group consisting of a salt of ruthenium and rhodium and a phosphorus compound selected from the group consisting of a phosphorus oxide, a phosphorus salt and a phosphorus acid and then further calcining.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 83 words
A process for preparing a catalyst which comprises coating a support with a first solution containing a first metal salt selected from the group consisting of a salt of platinum and palladium, calcining, further coating the calcined base with a second solution containing a second metal salt selected from the group consisting of a salt of ruthenium and rhodium and a phosphorus compound selected from the group consisting of a phosphorus oxide, a phosphorus salt and a phosphorus acid and then further calcining.
