Abstract
Here we present the first application of pore-expanded SBA-15 in heterogeneous catalysis. Pore expansion over the range 6–14 nm confers a striking activity enhancement towards fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) synthesis from triglycerides (TAG), and free fatty acid (FFA), attributed to improved mass transport and acid site accessibility.
