Abstract
Abstract {PG,1 A unique class of copper zeolite combustion catalysts which are both highly siliceous and contain an extraordinary amount of zeolitic divalent copper cations which are prepared by ion exchanging the predominantly alkali metal cation form of ZSM-5 type zeolites with divalent copper cations and subjecting the resulting compositions to rigorous oxidation.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
67 words
ZSM-5 type zeolite compositions suitable for use in oxidative combustion of hydrocarbons and oxygenated hydrocarbons having in the dehydrated state a composition in terms of mole ratios of oxides as: 1.6-2.0 Cu.sup.++ O:0-0.2 M.sub.2/n O:Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 :20-100 SiO.sub.2 wherein M is at least one cation having a valence of "n", said composition having a characteristic X-ray powder diffraction pattern containing at least the d-spacings of Table I.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
67 words
ZSM-5 type zeolite compositions suitable for use in oxidative combustion of hydrocarbons and oxygenated hydrocarbons having in the dehydrated state a composition in terms of mole ratios of oxides as: 1.6-2.0 Cu.sup.++ O:0-0.2 M.sub.2/n O:Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 :20-100 SiO.sub.2 wherein M is at least one cation having a valence of "n", said composition having a characteristic X-ray powder diffraction pattern containing at least the d-spacings of Table I.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
20 words
Composition according to claim 1 wherein the SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 molar ratio is from 40 to 85.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
12 words
Composition according to claim 1 wherein "M" represents an alkali metal cation.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
94 words
Process for preparing the compositions of claim 1 which comprises contacting and ion-exchanging a ZSM-5 type zeolite having at least 80 percent of its framework alumina tetrahedra associated with alkali metal cations with an aqueous solution of divalent copper cations to the extent that at least 80 percent of the said framework alumina tetrahedra are associated with a copper-containing cation, dehydrating said ion-exchanged zeolite whereby monovalent zeolitic copper cations are formed, and thereafter contacting the ion-exchanged form of the zeolite with an oxidizing atmosphere to convert Cu + zeolitic cations to Cu ++ cations.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
25 words
Process according to claim 4 wherein the starting ZSM-5 type zeolite has at least 80 percent of its framework alumina tetrahedra associated with sodium cations.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
13 words
Process according to claim 5 wherein the oxidizing atmosphere comprises NO 2 .
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
17 words
Process according to claim 6 wherein the oxidizing atmosphere comprises a mixture of NO 2 and oxygen.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
20 words
Process according to claim 6 wherein the zeolite when contacted with the NO 2 is in the partially hydrated state.
