Magnetic silica particles functionalized with guanidine derivatives for microwave-assisted transesterification of waste oil
Abstract This study aimed to develop a facile synthesis procedure for heterogeneous catalysts based on organic guanidine derivatives superbases chemically grafted on silica-coated Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles. Thus, the three organosilanes that were obtained by reacting the selected carbodiimides (N...
