This work demonstrates how reactive atmospheres enhance structural stability in catalytic sites during the water-gas shift reaction, suggesting new pathways for optimization.
a thermodynamic sink resilient to reaction-induced perturbations. Meanwhile, surface hydride species generated at oxygen vacancies open a concerted COOH dehydrogenation pathway, markedly lowering the rate-determining barrier. This work demonstrates that reactive atmospheres can steer catalytic sites toward configurations where structural stability and catalytic function coexist.
