Catalytic Mechanisms of Zirconium-Containing Active Sites over the SBA-15 Zeolite Framework for Xylose Conversion to Methyl Lactate

Zr-containing SBA-15 zeolite (Zr-SBA-15) catalysts show good catalytic performance toward xylose conversion to methyl lactate (ML). Here, we report our study on the catalytic mechanisms for the con...
