Improvements in the hydrothermal stability of mesoporous oxide catalysts and supports can be achieved by addition of small amounts of other metal oxides or by atomic layer deposition.  Results have important implications for the development of catalysts for biorenewable conversions which must all operate under aqueous conditions at elevated temperatures.
