  • Patent number: 11154846
    Abstract: The present invention relates to crystalline aluminosilicate comprising a MOZ framework type material. The MOZ framework type material comprises between 0.1 and 12.5 wt-% of copper, calculated as CuO, and one or more alkali and alkaline earth metal cations in an amount of 0.3 to 9 wt.-%, calculated as pure metals. The process for making the copper containing MOZ type zeolites comprises a) preparing a first aqueous reaction mixture comprising a silica source and potassium hydroxide, b) preparing a second reaction mixture comprising an alumina source, potassium hydroxide and a structure-directing agent selected from N,N-1,4-dimethyl-1,4-diazabicyclo-[2.2.

  • Patent number: 11071970
    Abstract: The present invention relates to crystalline zeolites with an ERI/CHA intergrowth framework type and to a process for making said zeolites. The ERI content of the zeolites ranges from 10 to 85 wt.-%, based on the total weight of ERI and CHA. The zeolites may further comprise 0.1 to 10 wt.-% copper, calculated as CuO, and one or more alkali and alkaline earth metal cations in an amount of 0.1 to 5 wt.-%, calculated as pure metals.

  • Patent number: 10486145
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of a copper containing small-pore zeolite which comprises?preparing a reaction mixture comprising a zeolite of the faujasite framework type, Cu-tetraethylenepentamine (Cu-TEPA) and at least one compound M(OH)x, which does not comprise the tetraethylammonium cation and?heating the reaction mixture to form a copper containing small-pore zeolite.
