Kinetics of the esterification of maleic anhydride with octyl, decyl or dodecyl alcohol over Dowex catalyst
Esterification of maleic anhydride over acid ion exchange resin catalyst has been investigated in an isothermal semi-batch reactor. Although this is a bimolecular reaction, first order kinetics with respect to acid has been observed.
