Kinetic models in synthesis of butyl and isobutyl methacrylates
The esterification process of methacrylic acid with la-butanol and isobutanol have been studied in an experimental isothermal batch reactor. Basing on experimental results, the rigorous kinetic models were derived including the reversible reactions. The equilibrium constants and kinetic parameters have been determined.
