Abstract

Abstract An ion exchange substance formed of a porous mineral support having a specific surface area greater than 10 sq.m/g and an organo silicon compound containing at least one amine group in an organic group attached to the silicon atom grafted onto the porous mineral support via the silicon atom of the organo silicon compound and an oxygen group on the support and in which the terminal radicals on the amino group are alkyl groups having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
Porous substances having anionic ion exchanger properties consisting essentially of a porous mineral support, the surfaces of which have free hydroxyl groups, and at least one organo silicon compound grafted onto the porous mineral support by reaction with hydroxyl groups on the support, in which the organo silicon compound has an amine function in an organic group separated from the silicon atom by at least three carbon atoms and in which the porous substance has a specific surface area greater than 10 sq.m/g.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 83 words
Porous substances having anionic ion exchanger properties consisting essentially of a porous mineral support, the surfaces of which have free hydroxyl groups, and at least one organo silicon compound grafted onto the porous mineral support by reaction with hydroxyl groups on the support, in which the organo silicon compound has an amine function in an organic group separated from the silicon atom by at least three carbon atoms and in which the porous substance has a specific surface area greater than 10 sq.m/g.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
Porous substances according to claim 1 in which the porous volumes are greater than 0.7 cc/g.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 28 words
Porous substances according to claim 1 in which the amino function is a dialkyl amine in which each of the alkyl groups contain 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 15 words
Porous substances according to claim 1 in which the porous mineral supports are silica supports.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 88 words
Process for the manufacture of porous substances according to claim 1, comprising in treating solid porous mineral supports possessing superficial hydroxyl groups with silanes having the general formula: ##EQU5## wherein at least one of the radicals R 3 , R 4 and R 5 is an alkoxy radical and wherein Y is an organic group in which at least three atoms of carbon are present, the radicals R 1 and R 2 of the amine function being identical or different alkyls having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 60 words
Process for the manufacture of porous substances according to claim 1, characterized in that the porous mineral support is first reacted with an organo silane having an organic group attached to the silicon atom containing a halogen group separated from the silicon atom by at least 3 carbon atoms and then replacing the halogen group with a secondary amino group.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 26 words
Process for the manufacture of porous substances according to claim 1, characterized in that the supports onto which the silane is grafted is a silica gel.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 21 words
Process as claimed in claim 5 in which the alkoxy radical is selected from the group consisting of methoxy and ethoxy.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 19 words
Process as claimed in claim 5 in which the organic group Y has from 3 to 12 carbon atoms.
