Our new alumina overcoating strategy using chemically modified alumina precursor was published in Small! Yuan-Peng and Florent developed a nanoscale alumina overcoating strategy in liquid phase by manipulating the sol–gel chemistry of aluminum sec‐butoxide. This method can be applied to overcoat heterogeneous catalysts with high surface areas to improve catalyst stability and selectivity.
