• . To address many of these issues mechanochemical methods such as ball-milling and grinding with pestle and mortar have emerged as powerful techniques [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. The mechanical energy generated by grinding two solids or one solid and one liquid substance results in the formation of

The results from ball milling experiments led to the conclusion that self-prepared and commercially available KF–Al2O3 differ in water content. The higher the residual water content, the higher are the product yields. Keywords: ball

Contrary to microwave-assisted reactions, MgO showed only little conversion when used as a base under ball milling conditions [34], whereas neutral oxides SiO2 and CeO2 did not show any conversion.
