What Types of Containers Are Suitable for Catalyst Storage?
The choice of containers is essential for effective catalyst storage:
Glass Containers: Glass containers are often used because they are inert and do not react with most catalysts. Ensure that the lids are airtight to prevent moisture ingress. Metal Containers: Some catalysts can be stored in metal containers, but it's important to choose materials that do not react with the catalyst. Stainless steel is a common choice. Plastic Containers: High-quality, chemical-resistant plastics can be used for certain catalysts. Ensure the plastic is compatible with the catalyst to avoid reactions.
