Measuring the solid content of a catalyst involves several techniques, including:
1. Gravimetric Analysis: This involves weighing the catalyst before and after a reaction to determine any loss in mass. 2. Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA): This technique measures changes in weight as a function of temperature, providing insights into the catalyst's thermal stability. 3. BET Surface Area Analysis: This method measures the surface area of the catalyst, which is directly related to its activity.
