Epoxidation of unsaturated fatty esters over large-pore Ti-containing molecular sieves as catalysts: important role of the hydrophobic–hydrophilic properties of the molecular sieve

“…as stabilizers in halogen-containing polymers, as additives in lubricants, in the manufacture of cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, fungicidal and algicidal solutions, and in wood treatment. [1][2][3][4][5] In existing industrial processes the epoxide is produced by reacting the unsaturated compound with a peracid either preformed 6 or synthesized in situ 7 with an organic acid, usually acetic or formic acid, and hydrogen peroxide. Using this procedure, the yields to epoxide are relativelly low as a consequence of the low H 2 O 2 selectivities.…”
