Controlling the pore shape of catalytic materials is a significant aspect of catalyst design and synthesis. Various methods can be employed to achieve the desired pore shape:
Template Synthesis: Using templates like surfactants or block copolymers to create specific pore shapes. Sol-Gel Process: Adjusting the conditions during the sol-gel process to control pore formation. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): This technique can be used to deposit materials in a way that forms desired pore shapes.
