Developing new catalysts can be expensive and time-consuming due to the need for extensive research, testing, and optimization. The high development costs can hinder the commercialization of novel catalysts. Catalysts can become deactivated or lose their activity over time due to factors like fouling, poisoning, and thermal degradation. Designing catalysts with specific properties and selectivity for desired reactions can be complex and challenging. Thus, the high-end pricing and risks associated with Chemical catalyst may drive down the acceptance rate, further hampering the business growth.
