What are Common Quality Control Issues in Catalysis?
Several issues can arise in quality control, including:
Impurities: The presence of impurities in catalysts can affect their performance and lead to unwanted side reactions. Particle Size Distribution: Inconsistent particle size can impact the surface area and reactivity of the catalyst. Thermal Stability: Catalysts must withstand the operational temperatures without degradation. Mechanical Strength: Poor mechanical strength can lead to catalyst breakdown and loss of activity. Reproducibility: The catalyst must perform consistently across different batches.
