What Techniques are Used to Study Polarization in Catalysis?
Several advanced techniques are employed to study polarization effects in catalysis. Spectroscopic methods like Infrared (IR) spectroscopy and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy can provide insights into the electronic environment of molecules and their polarization states. Additionally, computational methods such as Density Functional Theory (DFT) are extensively used to model and predict polarization effects at the molecular level. These techniques help in understanding how polarization impacts catalytic processes and in designing better catalysts.
