Kinetics of the Esterification of Phthalic-Anhydride with 2-Ethylhexanol .3. Tetrabutyl Titanate as a Catalyst

Skrzypek J, Sadlowski JZ, Lachowska M, Jaroszynski M

The kinetics of the esterification of mono-2-ethylhexyl phthalate in the presence of tetrabutyl titanate as a catalyst have been investigated in an isothermal semibatch reactor. The reaction appears to be second order. The kinetics parameters have been determined.
