Only about 200 μg of catalyst are required to identify the catalytically active materials on a combinatorial library of heterogeneous catalysts by IR thermography. The procedure is highly sensitive, and temperature differences arising from catalytic activity of hydrogenations and oxidations have been reliably detected down to 0.1 K.
