Catalytic Behaviour Of Sulphated Zirconia Supported On Mcf As Catalyst In Selective Glycerol Esterification With Palmitic Acid To Monopalmitin
In this study, the sulphated zirconia superacid, supported on Mesocellular Foam (MCF) was prepared by urea-hydrolysis method. Glycerol and palmitic acid was esterified in the presence of this catalysts and continuous supply of nitrogen to remove water formed. Catalyst loading and temperature of r...

| description | In this study, the sulphated zirconia superacid, supported on Mesocellular Foam
(MCF) was prepared by urea-hydrolysis method. Glycerol and palmitic acid was
esterified in the presence of this catalysts and continuous supply of nitrogen to remove
water formed. Catalyst loading and temperature of reactants was manipulated to
optimize the reaction condition for the esterification. All the esterification reactions
were studied in a batch process and the activity of the SZMCF catalyst under various
reaction parameters such as catalyst loadings (1 – 3 wt. %) with respect to limiting
reactant (palmitic acid) and reaction temperatures (160 – 180 ⁰C) was investigated. As
a conclusion, SZMCF catalyst which exhibited good activity was as an active catalyst
and suitable to be used in the reaction involving bulky molecules. |
