But-1-ene isomerization over Nafion® resin/silica composite catalyst
Abstract
But-1-ene isomerization to but-2-enes at 50 °C to near thermodynamic equilibrium is observed over a novel high surface area Nafion® resin/silica composite solid acid catalyst at a mass hourly space velocity (MHSV) of but-1-ene of 2.5 h–1.
