Understanding the failure of commercial Cu/SAPO-34 selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalysts at an atomic level is vital for the synthesis of more robust catalysts. Here the authors unravel the mysterious failure of Cu/SAPO-34 SCR catalysts via application of model catalysts and 2-dimensional pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance
