  • Hydrocarbon conversion using silicon-substituted zeolite compositions
    Patent number: 4836911
    Abstract: Crystalline zeolitic aluminosilicates having at least some of its original framework aluminum atoms replaced by extraneous silicon atoms and having a mole ratio of oxides in the dehydrated state of(0.85-1.1)M.sub.2/n O: Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 : xSiO.sub.2wherein M is a cation having a valence of "n"; "x" has a value greater than 6.0; has an x-ray powder diffraction pattern having at least the d-spacings of Table A; and has extraneous silicon atoms in the crystal lattice in the form of framework SiO.sub.4 tetrahedra. These novel zeolite aluminosilicates are employed in hydrocarbon conversion processes.
