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.
According to DIResearch's in-depth investigation and research, the global Catalyst market size was valued at XX Million USD in 2024 and is projected to reach XX Million USD by 2032, with a CAGR of XX% (2025-2032). Notably, the China market has changed rapidly in the past few years. By 2024, China's market size is expected to be XX Million USD, representing approximately XX% of the global market share. By 2032, it is anticipated to grow further to XX Million USD, contributing XX% to the worldwide market share.
