Influence of the catalyst (boehemite) calcination temperature, H2O2/styrene ratio and catalyst loading on the styrene conversion and selectivity for styrene oxide. phenyl acetaldehyde. benzaldehyde and benzoic acid in the epoxidation has been investigated. In the presence of water. the catalyst shows very poor activity and selectivity in the epoxidation. The catalyst also catalyses H2O2 decomposition and hence has optimum loading for obtaining high-styrene conversion in the epoxidation. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V.
