Abstract

The WO₃ catalysts loading effect on furfuryl alcohol oligomerization was investigated at 100^oC and ambient pressure. According to the information provided by GC and GC/MS, the conversion of furfuryl alcohol and selectivity to short chain-length oligomer (C₉~C₁₅) and heavy oligomer (>C₁₉) were calculated with varied catalysts loading. It was found that with increasing the WO₃ catalysts loading from 0.1 g to 1.2 g, the conversion of FA gradually increased up to 27.1% while the selectivity to short chain-length oligomer decreased then leveled off after 0.6 g catalysts loading. Oligomer molecular information including C=C and C=O were also confirmed by Infrared Spectroscopy.
