Abstract
The alkylation of solid 4-tertiobutylphenol by gaseous isobutene in th e presence of a catalyst has been studied according to different param eters such as, temperature, initial pressure of isobutene, proportion of catalyst and the granulometry of the catalyst and the solid reactan t. Among the predefined kinetic models, the unreacted core model for S pherical particles of unchanging size is the best adapted to the exper imental results. Based on this model, a mechanism is proposed involvin g the intervention of a carbocation.
