Title: Epoxies from maleic anhydride

Journal Article · · Hydrocarbon Process.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6204104
; ; ;

The epoxidation of maleic anhydride by hydrogen peroxide in the presence of sodium molybdate catalyst is first order with respect to both maleic anhydride and sodium molybdate concentration. The reaction is zero order with respect to hydrogen peroxide concentration. The calculated rates are reported and a reaction mechanism is proposed.
