What are Common Techniques for Catalyst Protection?
Several techniques are employed to protect catalysts, including:
1. Encapsulation: Encapsulating the catalyst in a protective shell can prevent exposure to deactivating agents. 2. Surface Modification: Modifying the surface of the catalyst to make it more resistant to deactivation. 3. Alloying: Creating alloy catalysts that are more stable under reaction conditions. 4. Using Inhibitors: Adding substances that preferentially bind to deactivating agents, protecting the active sites.
