Multiple parameters are generally responsible for the reactivity of particulate catalysts, although nanoparticle proximity is often neglected. Here the authors report the impact of such structural factor using the hydrogenation of benzaldehyde over PdAu nanoparticles supported on macroporous SiO2 as the probe reaction.
