Pore structural properties and catalytic activity of SBA-15 post synthetically functionalized with organo sulfonic acid and with zirconia are presented. HS03SBA-lS was found to be more efficient solid acid catalysts for the Esterification of Glycerol with lauric acid to monolaurin at 160degC for 6 h. The catalysts were characterized by surface area analysis, EDX, SEM, Fourier transform infrared (
