Supported catalyst

特許 権利維持 In chemistry, a catalyst support is the material, usually a solid with a high surface area, to which a catalyst is affixed.[1] The reactivity of heterogeneous catalysts and nanomaterial-based catalysts occurs at the surface atoms. Consequently great effort is made to maximize the surface area of a catalyst by distributing it over the support. The support may be inert or participate in the catalytic reactions. Typical supports include various kinds of carbon, alumina, and silica.
