Unauthorized use poses significant concerns for several reasons: 1. Intellectual Property Violations: Catalysts and catalytic processes are often protected by patents, copyrights, or trade secrets. Unauthorized use infringes on these protections. 2. Economic Impact: Companies invest heavily in research and development (R&D) to create advanced catalytic technologies. Unauthorized use undermines these investments, leading to potential financial losses. 3. Safety Risks: Unauthorized use of catalytic materials or processes may bypass critical safety evaluations, potentially leading to dangerous outcomes.
