In the field of catalysis, cryogenic grinding plays a crucial role for several reasons:
Maintaining structural integrity: Many catalysts are sensitive to heat. Cryogenic grinding helps in maintaining their structural integrity by preventing thermal degradation. Enhanced surface area: Fine particles have a larger surface area, which is beneficial for catalytic reactions. Cryogenic grinding helps in achieving the desired particle size without causing agglomeration. Preservation of active sites: The low temperatures help in preserving the active sites of catalysts, ensuring their efficiency and longevity.
