Deskripsi

Metals supported on metal oxides are common heterogeneous catalysts. Here the authors show that metal/oxide interfacial sites are highly active for alcohol oxidation—independent of the particle sizes—and use this information to design inverse oxide-on-metal particles with high activity and stability.
