The synthesis of sulphonated hypercrosslinked exchange resin for free fatty acid esterification

Esterification has been extensively used as a pretreatment process in biodiesel production to reduce the free fatty acid (FFA) content in the feedstock. This study investigates the potential of sulphonated hypercrosslinked exchange resin (SHER), a newly synthesised catalyst for the esterification re...
