How Does Nano Crystallization Affect Catalytic Activity?
Nano crystallization affects catalytic activity in several ways:
Enhanced Surface Area: Nanocrystals provide a larger surface area, allowing more reactant molecules to interact with the catalyst. Active Sites: The higher density of active sites in nanocrystals improves the rate of catalytic reactions. Quantum Effects: Nanocrystals may exhibit unique electronic properties that enhance catalytic performance. Thermal Stability: Some nanocrystals show improved thermal stability, which is crucial for high-temperature catalytic processes.
