Yes, fragmentation can be controlled through various means. Adjusting reaction parameters such as temperature, pressure, and catalyst concentration can help achieve the desired degree of fragmentation. The choice of catalyst and its properties, such as acidity, porosity, and surface area, also play a significant role in controlling the fragmentation process. Advanced techniques like in-situ spectroscopy and computational modeling can provide insights into the fragmentation mechanisms, aiding in the design of more efficient catalytic systems.
