The present invention relates to a particulate filter, in particular a particulate filter for use in an emission treatment system of an internal combustion engine. The particulate filter provides an advantageous combination of low back pressure and high fresh filtration efficiency.

Particulate filter

The present invention relates to a catalyzed particulate filter and methods comprising the filter for treatment of an exhaust gas from a gasoline engine, the catalyzed particulate filter comprising a gasoline particulate filter (GPF); a major catalytic layer coated onto or within an inlet side, an outlet side, or both sides of the GPF surfaces, the major catalytic layer comprising a first composition, wherein the first composition comprising a first support material; and a first platinum group metal (PGM); and a minor functional material layer placed onto or within an inlet side, an outlet side, or both sides of the GPF surfaces; the minor catalytic layer comprising a second composition; wherein the major catalytic layer has a higher loading than the minor functional material layer; the minor functional material layer is placed on top of the major catalytic layer, or the major catalytic material layer is placed on top of the minor functional layer. The catalyzed particulate filter provides an improved catalytic efficiency in conjunction with an efficient filter.

Catalyzed gasoline particulate filter

A catalyst article is provided including a substrate including a plurality of passageways, and further including a first and a second oxidation region including a first and a second subset of said plurality of passageways. A first catalyst composition is coating at least a portion of each passageway of the first oxidation region and positioned as a sole PGM-containing catalyst layer, or a zoned portion thereof, or as a top PGM-containing catalyst layer, or a zoned portion thereof, in the first oxidation region. A second catalyst composition is coating at least a portion of each passageway of the second oxidation region and positioned as a sole PGM-containing catalyst layer, or a zoned portion thereof, or as a top PGM-containing catalyst layer, or a zoned portion thereof, in the second oxidation region. The Pt:Pd weight ratio is greater in the first catalyst composition than in the second catalyst composition.
