How Does Schema Flexibility Impact Catalyst Design?
The design of catalysts often involves a complex interplay of various factors, including the active site, support materials, and reaction environment. Schema flexibility allows researchers to explore these factors in depth. For example:
Active Site Engineering: By adjusting the schema, researchers can modify the active site of a catalyst to improve its activity and selectivity. Support Materials: The choice of support materials can significantly impact the performance of a catalyst. A flexible schema enables the testing of various materials to find the most effective combination. Reaction Environment: The reaction environment, including the solvent and the presence of co-catalysts, can be optimized through a flexible schema to enhance catalytic performance.
