Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 68 words
The method of claim 1 wherein a mixture of a trioxide of a Group VI-B metal and an amount of platinum, palladium, or thier oxides in the rAnge of about 0.5 to about 2 weight percent of the total mixture is exposed to water vapor and hydrogen at an activation temperature of less than 100*C for a time sufficient to produce the catalyst comprising a hydrogen metal bronze.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the metal is tungsten.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the metal is molybdenum.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the reaction temperature is in the range of 250* to 350* C whereby isomerization reaction is favored.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the reaction temperature is in the range of 350* to 450*C whereby a cracking reaction is favored.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 40 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the reaction pressure is in the range of 1 to 1,000 psia, the hydrogen to hydrocarbon ratio is in the range of 5:1 to 16:1 and the WHSV is in the range of 0.1:3.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 35 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the hydrogen metal bronze is supported on a high surface area support chosen from among the group comprising high surface area alumina, silica, titania, zirconia, boria, and combinations thereof.
