Crystalline chromosilicates and process uses

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6582919
There are provided crystalline chromosilicates, their methods of preparation, and process uses. A first crystalline chromosilicate comprises a molecular sieve material providing a specific x-ray diffraction pattern and having the following composition in terms of mole ratios of oxides: 9 + or - 0.2 (Wr/sub 2/O+(1-W)M/sub 2/NO):Cr/sub 2/O/sub 3/:YSIO/sub 2/:ZH/sub 2/ wherein R is an alkyl ammonium cation, M is at least one cation having a valence of n, Y is a value within the range of about 4 to about 500, Z is a value within the range of about 0 to about 160, and W is a value that is greater than or equal to 0 and L than or equal to 1. A second crystalline chromosilicate comprises a molecular sieve material providing a specific x-ray diffraction pattern and having the following composition in terms of mole ratios of oxides: 9 + or - 0.2M/sub 2//NO:Cr/sub 2/O/sub 3/:YSIO/sub 2/:ZH/sub 2/ wherein M is at least one cation having a valence of n, Y is within the range of about 4 to about 500, and Z is within the range of about 0 to about 160. The first crystalline chromosilicate is a precursor of the second. There is provided also a process for the conversion of a hydrocarbon stream, which process comprises contacting said stream under hydrocarbon conversion conditions with a catalyst comprising the second crystalline chromosilicate. In addtion, there is provided a process for the isomerization of a xylene feed, which process comprises contacting said feed under isomerization conditions with a catalyst comprising the second crystalline chromosilicate.
