The synthesized materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, N2 physical adsorption, thermogravimetric analysis, and temperature-programmed desorption of CO〉 When BaCO3 contents were increased from 9.1 wt% to 44.7 wt%, pore size increased from 3.1 to 4.3 nm and the BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) surface area initially increased to a maximum value of 390 m2 g^-1 (at a BaCO3 content of 18.5 wt%) before subsequently decreasing. BaCO3 was well dispersed in the amorphous carbon framework, and no phase separation was observed. The mesoporous BaCO3/C composites exhibited high catalytic activities toward the transesterification of glycerol and dimethyl carbonate into glycerol carbonate. A glycerol conversion of 97.8% and a glycerol carbonate selectivity of 98.5% were obtained under the optimized reaction conditions.展开更多

The separate effects of the molar ratio of methanol to oil, the reaction time, and reusability were investigated. In addition, the catalytic activities of Sr(OH)2 and SrCO3 were also examined for the comparison. The results showed that the basicity and catalytic activity of these catalysts were decreased as the following order: Sr(OH)2 〉 SrB2O4·4H2O 〉 SrB6O10·5H2O 〉 SrB2O4 〉 SrB6O10 〉 SrCO3, and the reusability decreases as the following order: anhydrous strontium borates (SrBgO4, SrB6O10) 〉 hydrated strontium borates (SrB2O4·4H2O, SrB6O10·5H2O) 〉 Sr(OH)〉 The results indicate that the SrB2O4·4H2O with regular morphology, which was obtained at low temperature by a simple preparation method, might be as one kind of good potential alkaline earth salts catalyst for transesterification. Moreover, the possible reaction mechanism is proposed and analyzed.展开更多
