Acid-catalyzed etherification of glycerol with tert-butanol: reaction monitoring through a complete identification of the produced alkyl ethers
Higher tert-Butyl glycerol ethers (tBGEs) are interesting glycerol derivatives that can be produced from tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) and glycerol using an acid catalyst. Glycerol tert-butylation is a complex reaction that ... -
Comprehensive kinetics of hydrolysis of organotriethoxysilanes by 29Si NMR
The kinetics of several representative hybrid precursors were studied via 29Si NMR: three alkyl precursors, methyltriethoxysilane, ethyltriethoxysilane, and propyltriethoxysilane; as well as two unsaturated radicals, ... -
From fundamental materials chemistry to sensing applications: unravelling the water adsorption mechanism of a luminescent optical fibre sensor membrane
This work provides insight into the correlation between the luminescent response of a water-vapour optical fibre sensor and the textural properties of its lanthanide-doped silica coating. To this end, a library of 16 silica ... -
Gaseous fueling of an adapted commercial automotive spark-ignition engine: simplified thermodynamic modeling and experimental study running on hydrogen, methane, carbon monoxide and their mixtures
In the present work, methane, carbon monoxide, hydrogen and the binary mixtures 20 % CH4–80 % H2, 80 % CH4–20 % H2, 25 % CO–75 % H2 (by volume) were considered as fuels of a naturally aspirated port-fuel injection four-cylinder ... -
Kinetics of the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) by 29Si NMR spectroscopy and mathematical modeling
Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) is widely used to synthesize siliceous material by the sol–gel process. However, there is still some disagreement about the nature of the limiting step in the hydrolysis and condensation reactions. ... -
Outstanding performance of rehydrated Mg-Al hydrotalcites as heterogeneous methanolysis catalysts for the synthesis of biodiesel
There is still a need for active, selective and stable heterogeneous catalysts for the synthesis of biodiesel. In this work, magnesium-aluminium hydrotalcites with Mg/Al molar ratios within the 1.5–5 range were synthesized ... -
Pseudo-homogeneous and heterogeneous kinetic models of the NaOH-catalyzed methanolysis reaction for biodiesel production
Methanolysis of vegetable oils in the presence of homogeneous catalysts remains the most important process for producing biodiesel. However, there is still a lack of accurate description of the reaction kinetics. This is ... -
Reaction monitoring by ultrasounds in a pseudohomogeneous medium: triglyceride ethanolysis for biodiesel production
The sound propagation speed measurement us is used for monitoring triglyceride ethanol-ysis in a broad range of reaction conditions (mainly, temperature: 23–50◦C; ethanol/oil: from 6 to 24 mol/mol). Experimentally, us ...
