Tuneable Acidity in Fluorinated Al-SBA-15 Materials for the Esterification of Valeric Acid to Alkyl Valerates

The acidity of Al-SBA-15 materials functionalized by ball milling with several niobium loadings (0. 25–1 wt.%) as well as with several fluorine loadings (by wet impregnation using NH4F as a precursor) was characterized and materials investigated in the esterification of valeric acid to alkyl valerat...
