Abstract
A series of ordered mesoporous S2O82−/ZrO2–SiO2 (OMSZS) solid superacids with different calcination temperatures (400–650 °C) was synthesized using zirconium n-propoxide and tetraethyl orthosilicate as the raw materials and P123 as a structure-directing agent by solvent evaporation-post-dipping method. Transmission electron microscopy and small-angle X-ray diffraction results showed that the OMSZS were all ordered. The nitrogen adsorption results indicated that the specific surface area of OMSZS could reach up to 331–385 m2/g, whereas the average pore diameters were in the range of 3.1–3.2 nm. The pyridine infrared results mainly displayed Lewis acids, and the ammonia (NH3)-temperature programmed desorption characterization showed that the NH3 desorption of the OMSZS calcined at 550 °C was 61 cm3/g STP. The catalytic performance of the OMSZS was investigated by the transesterification reaction of waste frying oil and methanol. The yield of fatty acid methyl ester could reach up to 94% at 200 °C reaction temperature for 6 h. After repeated use for four times, the catalyst still featured good activity and the yield was 78%.
