The invention discloses gold-
titanium alloy nanoparticles as well as a wet
chemical preparation method and application thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: in a water-free and
oxygen-free environment, uniformly dissolving a gold salt, a
titanium salt and a support carrier in an
ether solvent, mixing with
lithium triethylborohydride, transferring into a high-pressure reaction kettle, stirring and heating to 180-220 DEG C under the
inert gas pressure of 0.5-1 MPa, and keeping the temperature for 1-4 hours; and after the mixture is cooled to the
room temperature, the product solution is diluted with normal
hexane, cleaning and
drying are conducted, and the gold-
titanium alloy nanoparticles are obtained. According to the invention, gold salt and titanium salt adsorbed on a support carrier are reduced by using a strong
reducing agent under the conditions of high temperature and
high pressure, and highly dispersed nanoparticles with uniform particle size are prepared; by introducing the supporting carrier, the problem that the particle size is increased due to agglomeration of
alloy nanoparticles at high temperature is avoided, the catalytic performance and the anti-
sintering performance of the catalyst are enhanced through
strong interaction with the carrier, and the catalyst has wide application prospects in the fields of CO
thermal oxidation and CO electrochemical oxidation.
