How to Optimize Contact Angle for Better Catalysis?
Optimizing the contact angle involves surface modification techniques such as:
Surface treatment: Methods like plasma treatment, chemical etching, or coating can modify surface properties to achieve the desired contact angle. Nanostructuring: Creating nanostructures on the catalyst surface can enhance surface area and improve wettability. Functionalization: Adding functional groups to the surface can tailor the interaction between the catalyst and reactants.
