[0000] Provided are diesel exhaust components where palladium is segregated from a molecular sieve, specifically a zeolite, in a catalytic material. In the catalytic material, therefore, there are at least two layers: a palladium-containing layer that is substantially free of a molecular sieve and a hydrocarbon trap layer that comprises at least one molecular sieve and is substantially free of palladium. The palladium is provided on a high surface area, porous refractory metal oxide support. The catalytic material can further comprise a platinum component, where a minor amount of the platinum component is in the hydrocarbon trap layer, and a majority amount of the platinum component is in the palladium-containing layer. Systems and methods of using the same are also provided.
