Several strategies can be employed to prevent or mitigate corrosion in catalysis:
Material Selection: Choosing corrosion-resistant materials such as certain alloys or coated metals can enhance the durability of catalysts. Protective Coatings: Applying protective coatings to catalyst surfaces can prevent direct exposure to corrosive agents. Control of Reaction Conditions: Optimizing reaction conditions such as temperature, pressure, and the concentration of corrosive agents can reduce the corrosive impact. Inhibitors: Adding chemical inhibitors to the reaction mixture can slow down or prevent corrosion.
