An aftertreatment component for use in an exhaust aftertreatment system. The aftertreatment component comprises an aftertreatment substrate and a compressible material. The compressible material may be formed from a plastic thermoset, a rubberized material, or a metal foil which permits for the selective expansion of the substrate within the compressible material, while also reducing cost and manufacturing complexity. In various embodiments, the aftertreatment substrate and the compressible materials may be formed separately and coupled to each other, or they may be formed concurrently via coextrusion.

A device that filters particulate matter from the exhaust stream of an engine includes a supporting structure with an elongate support, and a filter sleeve disposed within an exterior sleeve; a filter sleeve comprising a tubular shaft of filter material, the shaft having an open first end, and a closed second end; an exterior sleeve comprising a tubular shaft that defines an internal cavity that is sized and proportioned to receive the filter sleeve, the tubular shaft having an open first end, and a substantially closed second end, the substantially closed second end having a hole for filtered exhaust gases to pass through; and an attachment member that mounts the exterior sleeve to the supporting structure.

The disclosure relates to a method of forming a coated monolith article for the treatment of an exhaust gas. The method comprises the steps of: retaining a porous monolith article in a coating apparatus, the porous monolith article comprising a plurality of channels for the passage of an exhaust gas, each channel having a gas-contacting surface; depositing cementitious particles as a dry powder onto the gas-contacting surface of at least some of the channels; and reacting the cementitious particles with a liquid or gaseous reagent in situ within the porous monolith article to provide the coated monolith article.
