Tailored composition can be achieved through several methods, including:
1. Doping: Adding small amounts of different elements to modify the electronic or structural properties of the catalyst. 2. Alloying: Combining two or more metals to create a catalyst with superior properties compared to the individual components. 3. Support Modification: Altering the properties of the support material on which the catalyst is dispersed to improve performance. 4. Surface Functionalization: Adding specific functional groups to the surface to enhance activity or selectivity.
