ABSTRACT:
This invention is directed to a catalyst system for treating internal combustion engine exhaust gases, the system having enhanced hydrocarbon trapping efficiency which is particularly advantageous during cold start. The system comprises a hydrocarbon polymerization catalyst, a hydrocarbon trap located downstream of the hydrocarbon (HC) polymerization catalyst, advanced exhaust treatment catalyst. The hydrocarbon polymerization catalyst is capable of forming larger (HC) molecules from smaller HC molecules.
