Selective catalytic oxidation using supported gold–platinum and palladium–platinum nanoalloys prepared by sol-immobilisation
Abstract
Supported nano-alloys have been prepared using the sol-immobilisation method for two bimetallic combinations, namely gold–platinum and palladium–platinum, using activated carbon and titania as supports. Some of the materials were prepared using a method where both metals are simultaneously reduced, thereby leading to homogeneous alloys being formed. In addition, sequential
