Beryllium-aluminum-phosphorus-silicon-oxide molecular sieve compositions

Patent ·
OSTI ID:7256369
Crystalline molecular sieves comprising three-dimensional microporous framework structures of BeO/sub 2/, AlO/sub 2/, PO/sub 2/ and SiO/sub 2/ tetrahedral units having an empirical chemical composition on an anhydrous basis expressed by the formula: mR:(Be/sub w/Al/sub x/P/sub y/Si/sub z/)O/sub 2/ wherein ''R'' represents at least one organic templating agent present in the intracrystalline pore system; ''m'' represents the molar amount of ''R'' present per mole of (Be/sub w/Al/sub x/P/sub y/Si/sub z/)O/sub 2/ and has a value of zero to about 0.3; and ''w'', ''x'', ''y'' and ''z'' represent the mole fractions of beryllium, aluminum, phosphorus and silicon, respectively, present as tetrahedral oxides, the mole fractions being such that they are within the pentagonal compositional area defined by points A,B,C,D, and E of FIG. The crystalline molecular sieves is described having a characteristic X-ray powder diffraction pattern which contains at least the d-spacings set forth in one of the listed tables.
