Abstract
⺠Glycerol can be converted to diglycerols by basic as well as acidic catalysts. ⺠Higher oligomers are formed in consecutive reactions. ⺠Basic zeolites dramatically change composition of the diglycerol isomer pool. ⺠Acidic ionomers used at reduced reaction pressure seem to be applicable catalysts. ⺠Falling film reactor set-up prevents consecutive reactions of diglycerols.
