The deactivation mechanisms over the diesel oxidation catalyst in its real world application are determined by coupling its catalytic activities with surface characterization incluing X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, in-situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.  The role of the various aging factors impacting long-term performance in mobile applications will be discussed.
