Acidity Characterization and Acid Catalysis Performance of Titanium Silicalite (TS-1) LIU Wenhuan;GUO Peng;SU Ji;HU Jia;WANG Yanmei;LIU Na;GUO Hongchen;* 2009, 30 (6):  482-484.  Abstract ( 2555 )   [Full Text(HTML)] () PDF (415KB) ( 1180 )   Hammett indicator titration was used for the characterization of TS-1 acidity. The acid strength of the TS-1 studied was H0 = +3.3 – +4.8. In the epoxidation of propylene, only the stronger acid sites can trigger the side-reaction of propylene oxide with methanol. The weaker acid sites, although very weak, are active and selective to convert ethyldiamine to piperazine and 1,4-diazabicyclo- [2.2.2]octane.
