What are the Challenges in Developing Nanostructured Catalysts?
Despite their potential, nanostructured catalysts face several challenges:
Stability: Maintaining the stability of nanoparticles under reaction conditions is challenging due to issues like sintering and leaching. Scalability: Producing nanostructured catalysts at a large scale while maintaining their properties is a significant hurdle. Cost: The cost of raw materials and fabrication processes needs to be reduced for commercial viability. Characterization: Advanced techniques are required to accurately characterize the structure and properties of nanocatalysts.
