Bimetallic catalysts are widely used in catalytic reforming and in fine chemistry. Silica-supported Pd-Ni bimetallic catalysts were prepared either by coexchange or via surface organometallic chemistry. In this later case, Ni(C[sub 5]H[sub 5])[sub 2] was allowed to react with a reduced Pd/SiO[sub 2]. The temperature of formation of the alloy was determined by in situ X-ray diffraction performed under flowing H[sub 2] and the atomic order was determined by EXAFS. It is shown that the alloy is already formed at 620 K with organometallic precursors, whereas 840 K is necessary with coexchanged solids. A comparison between the X-ray methods and a careful analysis of the particle composition by EDX-STEM shows that the organometallic route leads to nearly homogeneous alloys. Alloy formation also occurs with coexchanged precursors; however, nickel in strong interaction with the support and unalloyed palladium are also observed. 18 refs., 10 figs., 5 tabs.
