During stability testing, several critical parameters are monitored:
Catalytic Activity: Measurement of the catalyst's ability to facilitate a reaction over time. Selectivity: The ability to favor the formation of desired products over undesired ones. Structural Integrity: Assessing changes in the physical and chemical structure of the catalyst. Thermal Stability: The ability to withstand high temperatures without degradation. Poison Resistance: Resistance to deactivation by impurities.
