Various techniques are employed in iterative testing to synthesize, test, and analyze catalysts:
- High-throughput screening: Allows the rapid testing of multiple catalyst samples under different conditions. - Spectroscopic methods: Techniques like NMR, IR, and X-ray diffraction are used to analyze the structure and composition of catalysts. - Computational modeling: Simulations and machine learning algorithms can predict catalyst performance and guide experimental design. - Reaction kinetics studies: Provide insights into the mechanisms of catalytic reactions and help in understanding how different factors influence catalyst performance.
