Abstract

- Catalytic properties of various solid acids for glycerol acetylation are studied.
- The rates are assessed based on type and strength of acid sites, and acidity.
- The rates proportionally correlate with acid strength for analogous solid acids.
- Sulfonic acid functionalized catalysts exhibit superior properties for the reactions.
- The configuration of surface acid moieties dominantly affects the catalytic properties.
