technique(s) | blocking: suitable |
Application: | The acid selectively blocks dye components from staining the tissue by either binding to it or by acting as a mordant. It may be used a recyclable superacid catalyst for isomerization reaction of cycloalkanes. It may simply be used as an acid catalyst for the following reactions: • Prins cyclization reaction • dehydration of alcohols • hydration of olefins.3 Phosphotungstic acid based membranes may be used for fuel cell applications. |
