Journal ArticleDOI

Production of biodiesel by esterification of palmitic acid over mesoporous aluminosilicate Al-MCM-41

TL;DR: In this paper, the catalytic acids were synthesized at room temperature and characterized by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), thermal analysis (TG/DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen absorption (BET/BJH), infrared spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM).
Journal ArticleDOI

Blue pigments based on CoxZn1−xAl2O4 spinels synthesized by the polymeric precursor method

TL;DR: The CoxZn1−xAl2O4 system was synthesized by the polymeric precursor method and characterized by the techniques XRD, TG-DTA, IR, UV-vis and colorimetry as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Esterification of oleic acid over solid acid catalysts prepared from Amazon flint kaolin

TL;DR: In this paper, a new eco-friendly catalyst for the esterification of oleic acid with methanol has been prepared from a waste material, Amazon flint kaolin, that was thermally treated (at 850 and 950°C) and activated with sulfuric acid solutions (1 and 4 m).
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of the oxidative stability by DSC of vegetable oils from the Amazonian area.

TL;DR: Differential scanning calorimetry and a Rancimat method apparatus were applied to evaluate the oxidative stability of buriti pulp oil, rubber seed oil, and passion fruit oil to indicate a good correlation between the DSC T(0) and oxidative stability index (OSI) values.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimization of biodiesel production using sulfonated carbon-based catalyst from an amazon agro-industrial waste

TL;DR: Murumuru kernel shell, an agro-industrial waste, was used as the precursor biomass in the synthesis of an acid biochar that was employed as a catalyst in the production of biodiesel originated from jupati oil.
