Abstract
A catalyst for purifying exhaust gases, comprising a carrier composed mainly of active alumina, containing near its surface a component to promote the transformation of active alumina to .alpha.-alumina when said carrier is subjected to a heat treatment in order to make the diameters of the pores near its surface larger than those of the pores in its interior, impregnated with an active catalytic component which permeates further into a portion of the interior deeper than the layer having the alumina transformation-promoting component.
