The mechanism on interfacial synergistic catalysis for supported metal catalysts has long been explored and investigated in several important heterogeneous catalytic processes (e.g., water–gas shift (WGS) reaction). modulation of metal–support interactions imposes a substantial influence activity selectivity reaction, as result the geometric/electronic structure sites.
