Metal–support interactions in systems of dispersed metals supported on thin‐film silica surfaces were examined by x‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Four metal–silica systems—Pt–, Pd–, Ag–and Au–SiO 2 —all indicated the formation of partially reduced Si(IV) species by the metal deposition. The extent of the reduction varied little with the kind or amount of deposited metal species. On the other hand, the amount of this newly formed Si(IV–δ) indicated a strong metal species dependence.
