Motorcycles and other 2-wheel vehicles

BASF, a leading developer of catalytic technology for automobiles, offers innovative catalyst solutions to control emissions from two- and four-stroke small engines. These cost-effective technologies are helping nations around the world meet the growing need to control air pollution from motorcycles, mopeds, scooters and other two- and three-wheeled vehicles.

To minimize cost, BASF's catalyst strategies maximize the efficient use of precious metals. By using advanced processing techniques and patented washcoating technology, BASF provides the most efficient use of these costly materials.

BASF's proprietary bond-coating technology, extends the physical and chemical durability of our catalysts and permits the design of thermal shock resistant catalytic products. By minimizing its deterioration during usage, we extend the catalyst life for converters and their essential components.

Another significant asset of our proprietary technology is the freedom it gives designers and engineers in their efforts to manage the heat generated in the exhaust following catalytic oxidation. This makes possible the use of advanced catalytic supports and heat tube materials.

Importantly, a vehicle's fuel economy and exhaust tuning characteristics are not compromised by BASF's emission reducing technologies.
