Highly DispersedCuO/ZnO Nanocomposite Supported onMgO as Catalyst for the Purification of Trioxane: Transfer Hydrogenationof Formaldehyde Impurities to Methanol

Abstract In trioxane (TOX) production, unreacted formaldehyde (HCHO) readily forms a hard-to-separate ternary azeotrope with TOX and water, impairing purification efficiency and increasing energy demand. We report a green catalytic strategy that selectively converts azeotropic HC...
