Introduction: 1.1 Background and Significance n-Butyl ether is an important industrial chemical used as afuel additive, solvent, and extractant. It is commonly synthesized by the reaction of n-butanol with asuitable catalyst. The choice of catalyst plays avital role in determining the efficiency, selectivity, and cost-effectiveness of the synthesis process. Montmorillonite, atype of natural clay mineral with alayered structure, has shown promise as a catalyst for various reactions due to its unique properties, including high surface area, ion-exchange capacity, and thermal stability. However, there is aneed to enhance the catalytic activity and selectivity of montmorillonite to improve the efficiency of n-butyl ether synthesis. 1.2 Objectives The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of modifying montmorillonite on its catalytic behavior for the synthesis of
