What Does TPR Stand For?
TPR stands for Temperature Programmed Reduction
Temperature Programmed Reduction (TPR) is an analytical technique used to study the reduction behavior of materials, typically catalysts, under controlled temperature conditions. In TPR, a sample is exposed to a reducing gas, such as hydrogen, while the temperature is gradually increased. The resulting gas compositions and reaction dynamics are monitored, providing insights into the material's reduction properties, surface chemistry, and catalytic performance. This technique is essential for characterizing the redox properties of metal oxides and supported metal catalysts in various chemical processes.
