Abstract

Esterification kinetics of acetic acid with n-octanol were studied in presence of the Amberlyst 15 as catalysts. The effect of various parameters such as agitation speed, particle size, temperature, catalyst loading, initial reactants molar ratio and catalyst reusability was investigated. A pseudo-homogeneous kinetic model was applied to correlate the experimental data in the temperature range from 333.15 to 363.15 K. The estimated kinetic parameters made the calculated results in excellent agreement with the experimental results, indicating that the pseudo-homogeneous model could give a good representation of the esterification kinetics using cation exchange resins as catalysts.
