  • Publication number: 20250115685
    Abstract: Provided is a quaternary ammonium salt having a specific structure, an organic structure-directing agent containing the quaternary ammonium salt, and a method for producing the quaternary ammonium salt. Also, provided is a CON-type zeolite, which is a mixed crystal in which a molar ratio (Si/Al) of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) is 200 or more and 2000 or less, and which contains 25 mass % or more of Polymorph A, a catalyst containing a CON-type zeolite, and a method for producing a lower olefin using the catalyst.

  • Patent number: 10478810
    Abstract: A zeolite catalyst capable of maintaining a high conversion of raw materials over a long period of time, and a method of producing a lower olefin stably over a long period of time using the zeolite catalyst is to be provided. A CON zeolite catalyst containing aluminum (Al) as a constituent element, wherein the CON zeolite catalyst has a ratio ((A2/A1)×100 (%)) of an integrated intensity area (A2) of signal intensity in a range from 57.5 ppm to 70 ppm to an integrated intensity area (A1) of signal intensity in a range from 45 ppm to 70 ppm is not less than 49.0% when analyzed by 27Al-MAS-NMR is prepared, and a lower olefin is produced by a MTO process using the zeolite catalyst.
