Relations between morphology and catalytic activity of ion exchanger catalysts for synthesis of bisphenol A Original Research Article

Swollen-state morphology of a series of ion exchanger catalysts was analyzed by inverse steric exclusion chromatography. Correlation of the obtained information with data on activities of the catalysts for synthesis of bisphenol A (BPA) served for quantitative assessment of usefulness of various fractions of polymer mass of the examined ion exchangers for bisphenol A synthesis.
