Managing the substantial NO x emissions during the cold start of diesel vehicles presents a critical environmental challenge. Enhancing the conversion of NO to NO 2 at low temperatures can significantly improve the efficiency of diesel aftertreatment systems. Manganese-based mullite catalysts are cost-effective and promising for NO oxidation; however, their low-temperature activity requires further enhancement. In this study, we innovatively leverage the strong electronic interactions between Mn 3 O 4 and YMn 2 O 5 to enhance the low-temperature NO oxidation activity (50% at 200 °C) of Mn 3 O 4 /YMn 2 O 5, demonstrating high activity (CO conversion: T 100 = 222 °C, C 3 H 6 conversion: T 100 = 209 °C, C 3 H 8 conversion: T 100 = 341 °C, NO maximum conversion: 78.7% at 300 °C) and stability (CO and C 3 H 6 conversion: 100%, C 3 H 8 conversion: 94.06%, NO conversion: 78.7% at 300 °C for 10 h) under a simulated exhaust gas mixture. Structural analysis (X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM)) confirmed the uniform coexistence of Mn 3 O 4 and YMn 2 O 5 phases. Furthermore, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) indicated that Mn 3 O 4 decreased the average Mn valence state, increased Mn–Mn interactions, and modified Mn–O coordination, contributing to improved catalytic performance.
