The thermodynamics, mechanism and kinetics of the catalytic conversion of propylene and water to diisopropyl ether over amberlyst 15

Bibliography: leaves 297-313. === Diisopropyl ether (DIPE) was synthesised in a single step from a feed of propylene and water over Amberlyst 15 ion exchange resin catalyst. It was produced in a trickle bed reactor at pressures between 1 bar and 60 bar, at temperatures between 70°C and 160°C and at...
