Protonation of Al-grafted mesostructured silica nanoparticles (MSN): acidity and catalytic activity for cumene conversion
The hexagonal structure of the mesostructured silica nanoparticles (MSN) based solid acid catalyst was synthesized using 1,2-propanediol as a co-solvent by sol-gel method, followed by aluminum grafting and protonation. The activity of the catalysts was tested for cumene conversion in a pulse microca...
