What are Some Recent Advances in Mass Spectrometry for Catalysis?
Recent advances in MS have further enhanced its utility in catalysis:
Ambient Ionization Techniques: Methods like DESI and DART allow for the direct analysis of samples in their native state, reducing sample preparation time. High-Resolution MS: Improvements in resolution and accuracy enable the detailed analysis of complex mixtures and the identification of minor reaction species. In-situ MS: Real-time monitoring of catalytic reactions under actual operating conditions provides a more accurate understanding of reaction mechanisms.
