Estrification of Acetic Acid with Isoamyl Alcohol over Expandable Graphite Catalyst

The catalysis of expandable graphite for esterification of acetic acid with isoamyl alcohol has been studied. Expandable graphite was prepared with three different methods. In esterification reaction, the influences of catalyst amount, materials ratio, reaction time, prepared method of the expandabl...
