Which outcome diminishes catalyst effectiveness after prolonged use in three-way catalytic converters?

💡 Explanation

Reduced catalytic activity follows from catalyst poisoning. Decreased surface area through sintering lowers active surface sites, because the precious metals cluster and reduce effective platinum group exposure; therefore, conversion rates decline dramatically rather than increasing them via dispersion or enthalpy effects.
