Yes, inertness can be engineered through various techniques: 1. Surface Modification: Techniques like coating or doping can be used to enhance the inertness of a catalyst. 2. Composite Materials: Creating composite materials that combine inert substances with active catalytic components can provide a balance of activity and stability. 3. Nanotechnology: The use of nanoparticles can enhance the surface area and inertness of catalysts, making them more efficient.
