Abstract
Monometallic nanocomposites are obtained with the use of supercritical carbon dioxide (fluid technique) and metal-vapor synthesis (MVS), while bimetallic nanocomposites of Pt and Au noble metals and gamma-Al2O3 oxide matrix are synthesized by a combination of these two methods. The structures, concentrations, and chemical states of metal atoms in composites are studied by means of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), transparent electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray fluorescent analysis (XFA), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The neutral state of metal atoms in clusters is shown by XPS and their size distribution is found according to SAXS; as is shown, it is determined by the pore sizes of the oxide matrices and lies in the range of 1 to 50 nm. The obtained composites manifest themselves as effective catalysts in the oxidation of CO to CO2.
