Kinetics of Polymerisation of Furfuryl Alcohol in Aqueous Solution
نویسندگان
چکیده
Kinetic information on the polymerisation of furfuryl alcohol catalysed by Clark-Lubs' aqueous buffer in the pH range of 1.G2.2 has been derived from the rate of increase ofcolour intensity measured with a photoelectric colorimeter. The polymerisation reaction is found to be of zero order, with the activation energy increasing exponentially with pH. The time required to reach the extent of reaction at which a resin layer separates out from the aqueous solution decreases with increasing temperature but increases with increasing pH. An exponential expression relating the time for phase separation with temperature and pH has been derived.

Effect of Calcination Rate on Performance of Co-precipitated Cu-MgO Catalyst in Hydrogenation of Furfural
Co-precipitated Cu-MgO catalysts were prepared and evaluated for the gas-phase hydrogenation of furfural. The effect of heating rate at the calcination step was studied by comparing the performance of three catalysts prepared via the same procedure but calcined at different heating rates. The results established that altering the heating rate could influence the structural properties of the cat...
