The phrase "acid function" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in scientific or mathematical contexts, particularly in chemistry or organic chemistry, to refer to a functional group that has acidic properties.
Example: "The carboxylic acid group is an important acid function in organic compounds, contributing to their reactivity."
Alternatives: "acidic group" or "acidic function".
Acid sites can be created by sulfated or tungstated ZrO2 and co-supported metals, e.g., Ni, provide bi-functional sites for hydrolysis (acid function) and hydrogenation (metal function) required for biomass processing in liquid water at temperatures in the range of 200°C.
The acid function is usually provided by acidic support, such as amorphous oxide or oxide mixture (Al2O3, SiO2 Al2O3, ZrO2/SO42− treated by HF) [2, 3], aluminosilicate molecular sieves (Y, Beta, Mordenite, ZSM-5, ZSM-22) [4, 5, 6], or silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieves (SAPO-11, SAPO-31, SAPO-41) [7, 8, 9, 10].
