👉 Desaturation, also known as oxidation or reduction, is a chemical reaction in which an oxidizing agent (usually metal) reacts with a reducing agent (usually hydrogen) to produce a product that can be reduced back to the original reactant. This process occurs when certain substances are exposed to air, usually at high temperatures, and they undergo a chemical change due to the presence of oxygen or other oxidizing agents. The desaturation of a substance typically occurs in a metal or its compound.
