  • Hydrocarbon conversion using UZM-50
    Patent number: 10888851
    Abstract: A new aluminosilicate zeolite designated UZM-50, methods of making the zeolite, and its use as a catalyst in hydrocarbon conversion processes are described. This zeolite is represented by the empirical formula: M+mRrAl1?xExSiyOz where M is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium or combinations thereof, R is the organic structure directing agent or agents derived from reactants R1 and R2 where R1 is an amine essentially incapable of undergoing pyramidal inversion and having 7 or fewer carbon atoms, and R2 is a dihaloalkane, and E is an element selected from the group consisting of gallium, iron, boron and mixtures thereof. UZM-50 has utility in various hydrocarbon conversion reactions such as conversion of an aromatic molecule to another aromatic molecule.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 28, 2017
    Date of Patent: January 12, 2021
    Assignee: UOP LLC
    Inventors: Christopher P. Nicholas, Mark A. Miller, Melissa M. Galey, John Mowat, Collette Nicholas
