Most important to the work presented here is the excellent ability of NPs to serve as catalysts for various reactions. In this study, the influence of metal type, temperature, atmospheric conditions, and substrate on catalytic performance were examined in both mono- and bimetallic NPs. Sintering, phase segregation and NP/support interaction could be observed under specific experimental conditions, and are described here. Au, Pt and Pd monometallic and AuxPt1
