Synthesis and Characterization of a CaFe2O4 Catalyst for Oleic Acid Esterification
Esterification of free fatty acid (oleic acid) with ethanol over a calcium ferrite catalyst was investigated in the present study. The calcium ferrite catalyst (CaFe2O4) was synthesized by the sol–gel method, which exhibited high catalytic activity for esterification of oleic acid. The morphology an...
