LDHs are involved in a variety of catalytic reactions. Some of the notable reactions include:
- Hydrogenation: LDHs can be used as catalysts for the hydrogenation of organic compounds. - Oxidation: LDHs are effective in catalyzing oxidation reactions, such as the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes. - CO2 Capture and Conversion: LDHs can capture CO2 and catalyze its conversion into useful chemicals. - Photocatalysis: LDHs have been explored as photocatalysts for the degradation of pollutants and water splitting.
