Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
117 words
A PROCESS COMPRISING ACTIVATING AN INORGANIC, SUPERCOLLOIDAL SILICEOUS SOLID HAVING A SURFACE CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF SILICA CONTAINING SURFACE SILANOL GROUPS BUT SUBSTANTIALLY NO SURFACE BOUND ALUMINUM, BY HEATING IT TO A TEMPERATURE IN THE RANGE FROM 300 TO 700*C. UNTIL ITS SPECIFIC HYDROXYLATED SURFACE AREA IS REDUCED TO LESS THAN 85 PERCENT OF ITS SPECIFIC SURFACE AREA BUT NOT BELOW THE POINT WHERE THERE ARE ABOUT 2 SURFACE SILANOL GROUPS PER SQUARE MILLIMICRON OF SURFACE, AND THEREAFTER EFFECTING CONTACT BETWEEN IT AND A TERMINALLY-UNSATURATED HYDROCARBON, WHEREBY CHEMICAL REACTION OCCURS TO FORM AN ORGANO-MODIFIED PRODUCT OF THE SILICEOUS SOLID, CHARACTERIZED BY HAVING A SURFACE LAYER OF DISCRETE ORGANIC GROUPS ATTACHED TO THE SILICEOUS SURFACE THROUGH PRIMARY CHEMICAL BONDS.
