Abstract :
A new method for the preparation of peroxyacetic acid from acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of solid superacids as a catalyst under mild conditions has been proposed. The preparation of peroxyacetic acid could be carried out in a batchwise operation as well as in a flow-system operation. Nafion-H was found to be active and very stable catalyst for the preparation of peroxyacetic acid and to be regenerated without the loss of catalytic activity.
