Abstract
The transition to a defossilized chemical industry requires not only more active catalysts but also understanding catalyst deactivation. In Nature Catalysis, Liu and co-workers reveal how atomic migration drives catalyst aging during non-oxidative ethane dehydrogenation, offering broader insights for designing durable, resource-efficient catalysts for alkane dehydrogenation technologies.
