Synthesis of glycerol carbonate is industrially significant due to its varied applications in
several areas such as paints, coatings, detergents, membranes, polyurethane foams …

In this study, the catalytic carbonylation of glycerol with urea in the presence of gypsum
based heterogeneous catalyst is reported for the first time. Gypsum (CaSO 4· 2H 2 O) is one …

Waste boiler ash was successfully utilised as catalyst for the direct synthesis of glycerol
carbonate from glycerol and urea. A series of catalysts were prepared using various …

The results of sustainable and selective synthesis of glycerol carbonate (GC) from urea and
glycerol under ambient pressure using carbon-fiber-supported metal oxide catalysts are …

In this study, a heterogeneous catalyst was developed from red gypsum for the synthesis of
glycerol carbonate through a glycerolysis reaction with urea. Under optimum reaction …

Tin-tungsten mixed oxide catalysts with varying their mole ratio were prepared by co-
precipitation method. The catalysts physico-chemical properties were derived from FT …

The present contribution includes the solvent free environmentally benign route towards
synthesis of glycerol carbonate via glycerolysis of urea. The parent as well as mono …

A series of Zn salts were used as catalysts for the reaction of glycerol and urea to produce
glycerol carbonate and it was found that ZnSO4 showed the highest catalytic activity …

The glycerolysis of urea plays an important role in the conversion of glycerol into glycerol
carbonate because it is a phosgene-free process that uses easily available and low-cost raw …

Glycerol carbonylation with urea is a very feasible option to produce glycerol carbonate with
a net result of CO 2 fixation through urea synthesis. The prerequisite of an efficient catalyst …
