The future of thermal CVD in catalysis looks promising, with ongoing research focused on:
Developing new precursor materials that allow for lower deposition temperatures and enhanced catalytic properties. Improving process control to produce even more uniform and defect-free coatings. Expanding the range of materials that can be deposited using thermal CVD, including more complex nanostructured catalysts. Integrating thermal CVD with other techniques like atomic layer deposition (ALD) to create hybrid coatings with advanced functionalities.
