The effect of the catalyst used on the kinetics of di-2-ethylhexyl maleate synthesis
Kinetics of the esterification of maleic anhydride with 2-ethylhexanol in the, presence of sulfuric acid, amphoteric tetrabutyl titanate or in the absence of external catalyst has been studied. The kinetic equations and kinetic parameters have been determined.
