While TPR is a powerful technique, it has some limitations:
Complex Interpretation: The presence of overlapping peaks can make it difficult to deconvolute the TPR profile and accurately identify individual reduction events. Sample Preparation: The physical form of the sample (e.g., powder, pellet) can affect the TPR results, and careful sample preparation is required to obtain reproducible data. Instrument Sensitivity: The sensitivity of the detection system can limit the detection of small amounts of reducible species.
