Abstract

Polyaniline-sulfate deposited on three different carriers was studied for transesterification of triacetin and castor oil with methanol at mild reaction conditions (temperature of 55° C). Multi- wall carbon nanotubes (CNT), carbon and silica were coated with polyaniline sulfate (ca. 20wt%) during polymerization of aniline. Because of different textural and hydrophobic properties of the carriers, the polymer coatings of various morphologies were obtained as ...
