  • Patent number: 9789476
    Abstract: A novel MFI zeolite that when used as a catalyst, can be used for a selective catalytic reaction for larger molecules and provides a method for producing the MFI zeolite. The MFI zeolite includes uniform mesopores having a pore distribution curve which a peak-width thereof at half height (hw) is at most 20 nm (hw?20 nm) and a center value (?) of a maximum peak is 10 nm or more and 20 nm or less (10 nm???20 nm), and having a pore volume (pv) of the uniform mesopores of at least 0.05 mL/g (0.05 mL/g?pv); the MFI zeolite has no peak in a range of 0.1° to 3° in powder X-ray diffraction measurement with a diffraction angle represented by 2?; and the MFI zeolite has an average particle diameter (PD) of at most 100 nm (PD?100 nm).

  • Patent number: 8722560
    Abstract: A subject for the invention is to provide a highly heat-resistant SCR catalyst which has an NOx reduction percentage of 40% or higher at 200° C. after a hydrothermal durability treatment. The invention relates to use of ?-type zeolite which has an SiO2/Al2O3 molar ratio of 20 or higher but less than 30 and a crystallite diameter before a hydrothermal durability treatment of 20 nm or larger, shows a change in crystallite through the hydrothermal durability treatment of less than 10%, and has a fluorine content lower than 0.1%. The ?-type zeolite can be crystallized from a liquid reaction mixture containing a secondary and/or a tertiary alkylamine having 5 or more carbon atoms.
