  • Publication number: 20230062875
    Abstract: A tool includes a reversable first socket having a pair of opposed first socket ends and a first engagement portion therebetween, and a reversable second socket having a pair of second opposed socket ends and a second engagement portion therebetween. The tool includes an elongated first adapter having a driven end, a first drive end opposite the driven end, and an extending length therebetween. The tool includes an elongated second adapter having a receiving end opposite a second drive end. The receiving end includes a first interior portion, a second interior portion connected to the first interior portion, and a third interior portion connected to the second interior portion. In a first configuration, the first drive end is engaged to the first engagement portion. In a second configuration, the second drive end is engaged to the second engagement portion.

  • Patent number: 10821431
    Abstract: A method is provided for the synthesis of aluminum-containing forms of molecular sieve CIT-15. The method includes treating an aluminogermanosilicate CIT-13 molecular sieve with water under conditions sufficient to degermanate at least a portion of the aluminogermanosilicate CIT-13 molecular sieve to provide a phyllosilicate comprising delaminated cfi-layers; and calcining the phyllosilicate under conditions sufficient to convert the phyllosilicate to an aluminogermanosilicate CIT-15 molecular sieve.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 2, 2020
    Date of Patent: November 3, 2020
