← ScienceWhich risk increases when industrial ammonia synthesis catalysts experience thermal cycling?
A)Increased crystal lattice dislocation rate✓
B)Decreased reactant diffusion equilibrium
C)Enhanced product desorption efficiency rate
D)Reduced active site poisoning concentration
💡 Explanation
Thermal cycling causes increased crystal lattice dislocation rate because repeated heating and cooling induce stresses at grain boundaries. These stresses drive vacancy cluster aggregation, leading to microcrack formation; therefore accelerating dislocation formation, rather than promoting atomic rearrangement uniformly.
