Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
139 words
A method for the preparation of zeolite Nu-10 which comprises reacting an aqueous mixture containing sources of at least one oxide XO 2 , at least one oxide Y 2 O 3 and, optionally at least one organic compound selected from: (a) compounds of the formula: wherein each of L 1 and L 2 , independently, represents a hydroxyl or an optionally substituted amino group and n is an integer from 2 to 20, provided that when both L 1 and L 2 are optionally substituted amino groups n is an integer from,6 to 20, and (b) heterocyclic bases, the reaction mixture having the molar composition: wherein each of M and M 2 represents an alkali metal, ammonium or hydrogen, Q represents the organic compound, X and Y have the meanings given above and Z represents an acid radical.
