Metals or metal oxides supported on supports are often used as catalysts for various catalytic reactions because the deposition of metal species on the supports results in the improvement of catalytic activity and selectivity, and/or in the inhibition of their sintering at high temperatures due to the chemical interaction between the metal species and the supports.
