In this paper, NiMoO 4 powder was synthesized by the complexation method combining EDTA-Citrate. The behavior of the NiMoO 4 material in the ethyl transesterification reaction was evaluated by analyzing the acidity index under specified reaction conditions. The results showed that NiMoO 4 crystallized at 800 °C with a total mass loss of 85%, presenting a monoclinic structure, free of secondary phases, high degree of crystallinity and average crystallite size of 140 nm. The particles had heterogeneous sizes and shapes, but with well-defined contours. The increase in the mass of NiMoO 4 in the reaction medium reduced the acidity index (0.8 mgKOH.g -1 with 15 wt.%). Despite the use of the minimum molar ratio (1:3), the ethyl route being less reactive and the use of the operating temperature close to the alcohol evaporation temperature, NiMoO 4 showed promising catalytic potential in the transesterification process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
