Discovery of anti-sintering noble metal catalysts is challenging, as supported noble metal species tend to aggregate at high temperatures, leading to severely deteriorated catalytic performances. Here we show that 1 wt% of noble metal species including Au, Pd and Ru can be incorporated into high-entropy oxides (HEOs) through entropy stabilization at 900 °C in air. A reversible temperature-dependent dissolution–exsolution process is observed for Au-HEO. Further correlation with distinct CO oxidation capabilities demonstrates the potential to utilize the entropy effect to access self-regenerative catalysts for catalytic reactions.
