Abstract

See full text

An exhaust system 20 for an internal combustion engine comprises a) a first catalysed substrate monolith 12 comprising a first washcoat coating disposed in a first washcoat zone 16 of the substrate monolith and a second washcoat coating disposed in a second washcoat zone 18 of the substrate monolith, wherein the first washcoat coating comprises a catalyst composition comprising at least one platinum group metal (PGM) and at least one support material, wherein at least one PGM in the first washcoat coating is liable to volatilise when the first washcoat coating is exposed to relatively extreme conditions including relatively high temperatures, wherein the second washcoat coating comprises at least one material supporting copper for trapping volatilised PGM and wherein the second washcoat coating is oriented to contact exhaust gas that has contacted the first washcoat; and b) a second catalysed substrate monolith 14 comprising a catalyst for selectively catalysing the reduction of oxides of nitrogen to dinitrogen with a nitrogenous reductant disposed downstream from the first catalysed substrate monolith.
