To this end, different experimental runs were carried out in a lab-scale reactor, analyzing the effect of the alcohol (methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol, 2-butanol), catalyst mass loading (from 1 to 10 wt % with respect to the oil mass) and operating temperature (60\u201390 \u00b0C). The main focus of investigation was oxirane conversion. The study was complemented by FT-IR,\u00a01H NMR and kinematic viscosity characterization of the different products of the ring-opening reaction. Experimental conversion data were fitted through a suitable kinetic model. Values of the best-fitting parameters in terms of rate constant, activation energy and catalyst reaction order were obtained, and were potentially useful for the design of an industrial process<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Synthesis of Biolubricant Basestocks from Epoxidized Soybean Oil Turco, Rosa; Tesser, Riccardo; Vitiello, Rosa; Russo, Vincenzo; Andini, Salvatore; Di Serio, Martino Catalysts 2017, 7, 309 Abstract This work deals with the preparation of biolubricant basestocks through the ring-opening reaction of epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) by alcohols in presence of solid acid catalysts (SAC-13 resin).
