  • Patent number: 6969692
    Abstract: A process for the preparation of a metal-doped pentasil-type zeolite comprising the steps of: a) preparing an aqueous precursor mixture comprising a silicon source and an aluminum source, at least one of these sources being doped with a rare earth metal or a transition metal of Groups Vb–VIIIb, Ib, or IIb of the Periodic System, and b) thermally treating the precursor mixture to form a metal-doped pentasil-type zeolite. With this process, metal-doped pentasil-type zeolites can be prepared while the risk of precipitation of the dopant as a separate phase is minimized.

  • Patent number: 6964934
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of doped pentasil-type zeolite, which process comprises the steps of: a) preparing an aqueous precursor mixture from a silicon source, an aluminium source, and doped non-zeolitic seeds; and b) thermally treating the precursor mixture to form a doped pentasil-type zeolite. The term “non-zeolitic seeds” includes seeds made from materials selected from the group consisting of (i) X-ray amorphous materials, (ii) milled crystalline materials, such as milled zeolites, that have a relative crystallinity of not more than 75%, and (iii) crystalline materials other than zeolites, such as clays (e,g, bentonite and kaolin) and (low) crystalline aluminas.
