How Do Corrosion Resistant Alloys Improve Catalytic Efficiency?
CRAs improve catalytic efficiency through several mechanisms:
Surface Stability: By resisting corrosion, CRAs maintain a stable surface, which is crucial for the consistent activity of heterogeneous catalysts. Thermal Stability: Many CRAs retain their properties at high temperatures, ensuring that catalytic reactions proceed efficiently. Reduced Contamination: CRAs prevent the leaching of metals into the reaction environment, which can poison catalysts and reduce their activity.
