In the pursuit of understanding the chemical transformations of catalytic reactions and the structural evolution of catalysts at the molecular level, a suite of advanced experimental methods has been developed in the studies of catalysis science. Furthermore, among these methods, neutron scattering not only gives catalytic information that is highly complementary to other microscopic scattering techniques such as electrons (microscopy and diffraction) and photons from visible light to synchrotron X-rays, but also frequently provides unique insights into catalysis regarding the structure and chemical nature of light elements such as hydrogen and oxygen that are either not possible or difficult to study with other approaches.
