Fixation of carbon dioxide into epoxides to form cyclic carbonates using silicate based catalysts
(Makerere University, 2018-11)
This study aimed at developing silicate based catalytic systems for the fixation of carbon dioxide (CO2) into epoxides to form cyclic carbonates. Catalytic activity of selected naturally occurring silicates including: ...
Synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and carbon dioxide catalyzed by talc and other phyllosilicates
(Springer Nature, 2020)
Naturally occurring phyllosilicate minerals such as talc and vermiculite in conjunction with n-tetra butyl ammonium bromide (TBAB) co-catalyst were found to be efficient in the coupling of CO2 with epoxides to form cyclic ...
