There are several reasons to use mineral wool in catalysis:
Thermal Stability: Mineral wool can withstand high temperatures, making it suitable for reactions requiring elevated conditions. Surface Area: The fibrous structure offers a large surface area for catalyst dispersion, improving reaction rates. Inertness: Being chemically inert, it does not interfere with the catalytic process. Porosity: The porous nature allows for better mass transfer of reactants and products.
