| Summary: | Templated sol - gel encapsulation of surfactant-stabilised micelles containing metal precursor(s) with ultra-thin porous silica coating allows solvent extraction of organic based stabiliser from the composites in colloidal state hence a new method of preparing supported alloy catalysts using the inorganic silica-stabilised nano-sized, homogenously mixed, silver - platinum (Ag-Pt) colloidal particles is reported. |
