Research Summary

A catalyst is a substance that facilitates and speeds up a chemical reaction without being consumed or permanently changed in the process. It works by providing an alternative reaction pathway with lower activation energy, enabling the reaction to occur more readily. Catalysts can be solids, liquids, or gases and can be homogeneous (in the same phase as the reactants) or heterogeneous (in a different phase). They play a crucial role in various industries, such as petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and environmental science, where they are used to increase reaction rates, improve selectivity, and reduce energy requirements. Catalysts are vital in promoting sustainable and efficient chemical processes by enhancing the efficiency of reactions and minimizing the need for high temperatures and pressures.
