Catalytic performance enhancement by alloying Pd with Pt on ordered mesoporous manganese oxide for methane combustion

Alloying Pd with Pt enhanced the catalytic performance in methane combustion. 1.41(Pd5.1Pt)/meso-Mn2O3 showed the highest activity because of its large surface area, high Oads concentration, good low-temperature reducibility, and strong Pd-Pt alloy and Mn2O3 interactions.
