Synthesis, Characterization and Catalytic Performance of H3SiW12O40/SiO2 Prepared by Sol-Gel Technique

The purpose of this work is to study the synthesis, characterization, and catalytic performance of two types of solid heteropoly acid catalysts, namely, silicotungstic acid bulk (STAB) and STA-silica sol-gel (STA-SG) compared with sulfuric acid. From the XPS analyses, there was a significant formati...
