Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 58 words
A method of making a catalyst which comprises mixing together, in finely-powdered form, a Group VIII metal oxide, a hydraulic binding agent, forming the mixture into compressed pellets having a pellet density in the range of 0.9 to 1.3, treating said pellets with water or steam or both, then drying and reducing with a reducing agent at 200°-400°C.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 58 words
A method of making a catalyst which comprises mixing together, in finely-powdered form, a Group VIII metal oxide, a hydraulic binding agent, forming the mixture into compressed pellets having a pellet density in the range of 0.9 to 1.3, treating said pellets with water or steam or both, then drying and reducing with a reducing agent at 200°-400°C.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
A method according to claim 1 in which the mixture is calcined at 300°-500°C after forming said pellets.
