In this work, a laboratory scale selection study over eight catalytic agents was made in the acetic acid and butyl alcohol esterification reaction (seven Ion exchange resins and a zeolytic solid). Considering some physicochemical characteristics as the activation pre-treating requirements, acidity, thermal stability, reaction performance, etc., it was found that macroporous ion exchange resins are the most efficient catalysts, especially Lewatit K-2431 resin.
En este trabajo se realizó un estudio de selección, a escala de laboratorio, sobre ocho agentes catalíticos para la reacción de esterificación de ácido acético y butanol (siete resinas de intercambio catiónico y una matriz zeolítica). Tomando en cuenta algunos parámetros fisicoquímicos, como los pretratamientos requeridos para la activación, la acidez, la resistencia térmica, el desempeño en reacción, etc., se encontró que las resinas de intercambio macroporosas son los catalizadores más eficientes, específicamente la resina Lewatit K-2431.
