![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Esterification and transesterification on Fe2O3-doped sulfated tin oxide catalysts Esterification and transesterification on Fe2O3-doped sulfated tin oxide catalysts](/preview/png/51103.png)
A series of Fe2O3-doped (0.2–3.0%) sulfated tin oxides have been prepared by a co-precipitation method, followed by sulfation and calcination. The addition of small amounts of Fe2O3 to sulfated tin oxide results in an enhanced number of very strong and strong acid sites, which makes the Fe2O3-doped catalysts more active than the undoped one for esterification of lauric acid with methanol and transesterification of triacetin with methanol. The catalyst containing 1.0% Fe2O3 exhibits the highest activity for both biodiesel-forming type reactions.
Graphical AbstractFigure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slideDoping 0.2–3.0% Fe2O3 into sulfated tin oxide improved surface area, sulfate content and number of very strong and strong acid sites, which is responsible for their enhanced catalytic activities for esterification and transesterification.Research Highlights
► Sulfated tin oxide was modified by small amounts of Fe2O3.
► Doping Fe2O3 into SO42−/SnO2 enhanced the number of very strong and strong acid sites.
► The addition of Fe2O3 to SO42−/SnO2 improved the activity for esterification and transesterification.
