Embedded ionic liquid modified ZIF-8 in CaMgAl hydrotalcites for bio-glycerol transesterification.

ABSTRACT: Novel modified MOF intercalated hydrotalcites was synthesized for catalyzing the conversion of glycerol into high value-added glycerol carbonate in this paper. [APmim]OH/ZIF-8 was prepared by encapsulating aminopropyl hydroxide imidazole ionic liquid in ZIF-8 and inserted in Ca-Mg-Al hydrotalcites with layered structures to prepare [APmim]OH/ZIF-8/LDH with strong basicity and high specific surface area. ZIF-8, [APmim]OH/ZIF-8 and [APmim]OH/ZIF-8/LDH were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM and nitrogen adsorption-desorption. The results showed that the conversion rate of glycerol can reach 98.6% and the glycerol carbonate yield was 96.5% in the transesterification of glycerol with dimethyl carbonate catalyzed by [APmim]OH/ZIF-8/LDH when the molar ratio of DMC and glycerol was 3 : 1, the catal
