Noble metal nanoparticles have often been used to enhance the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 and to extend the absorption wavelength from the ultraviolet to visible region. Bimetallic nanoparticles, composed of two different metal elements, can exhibit peculiar electronic, optical, and catalytic or photocatalytic properties that are absent in the corresponding monometallic nanoparticles. In this work we show the effect kind and amount of metal precursor, calcination temperature and TiO2 matrix on the on the structure and photocatalytic activity of titanium dioxide loaded with Au/Pt and Au/Pd nanoparticles.
