Kinetics of the sulfuric acid catalyzed esterification of palmitic acid with isobutyl alcohol has been studied and reviewed critically. A theoretical rate equation is derived by the following reaction mechanism: (1) The reaction of sulfuric acid and isobutyl alcohol produces isobutyl sulfuric acid w

Abstract
Cylindrical pellets were made by mixing ionβexchange resin particles with binding powders and heating to 140Β°C. To compare catalytic activities of these resin pellets with those of resin particles and sulfuric acid, the esterification of palmitic acid with isobutyl alcohol was carried out in a batch reactor. The rate equation for sulfuric acid could be applied to ionβexchange resins although the values of parameters were different.

## Abstract The kinetics of the esterification of acetic acid with the secondary alcohol, 2βpropanol, catalyzed by the cation exchange resins, Dowex 50Wx8β400, Amberlite IRβ120, and Amberlyst 15 has been studied at temperatures of 303, 323, and 343 K; acid to alcohol molar ratios of 0.5, 1, and 2;
The dehydration of tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) in the liquid phase was studied by using an ion exchange resin, Amberlyst 15 (A15) in the H Ο© form. Experiments were carried out both in a semi-batch reactor and in a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) with wet or dry resins. The results with the dry r
