Sulfated ZrO2–Al2O3 Nanocomposites: Advances in Microwave-Assisted Synthesis and Catalytic Applications

The data supporting this study were obtained from comprehensive experimental and analytical investigations on Sulfated ZrO₂–Al₂O₃ nanocomposites synthesized using a microwave-assisted method. The dataset provides detailed insights into the influence of synthesis conditions on the structural, textural, and catalytic properties of the materials.
The characterization data include:
• X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns confirming crystalline phases and structural integrity.
• Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra identifying sulfate incorporation and surface functional groups.
• Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) micrographs and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectra providing morphological and compositional information.
• BET surface area and pore size distribution data describing the textural properties of the nanocomposites.
• Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) data evaluating the thermal stability and sulfate retention of the samples.
The catalytic data include conversion percentages, selectivity values, and recyclability performance results obtained from acid-catalyzed model reactions under optimized conditions. These datasets collectively establish correlations between structural parameters and catalytic efficiency.
