Enhanced catalyst activity of WO3 using polypyrrole as support for acidic esterification of glycerol with acetic acid

A series of polypyrrole supported WO3 were fabricated and characterized by FT-IR, XRD, XPS, BET, TGA, and FESEM-EDX. The activity of the catalysts was tested in glycerol esterification with acetic acid, and it found that WO3-Ppy-20 (nanocomposite with 20% WO3 loaded) showed the maximum catalyst acti...
