An optimal balance between oxidative and reductive surface properties is obtained when Au and Ag are successively introduced. Significant re-dispersion processes take place when the catalyst runs at 500 degrees C leading to a gain in activity at low temperature and ascribed to a better interaction between Au and Ag species. Co-precipitation leads to a preferential formation of intermetallic Au-Ag particles which is detrimental to the catalytic performances. Aging at 500 degrees C leads to a significant particle sintering and a strengthening of the metallic character. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
