Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 74 words
A modified cracking catalyst obtained by contacting a zeolite-modified silica-alumina cracking catalyst on which a deactivating amount of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of nickel, iron, and vanadium has been deposited and at least one passivating material selected from tungsten and compounds of tungsten under elevated temperature conditions in an amount such as to add about 0.05 to 2 weight percent tungsten based on the weight of the untreated catalyst.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 74 words
A modified cracking catalyst obtained by contacting a zeolite-modified silica-alumina cracking catalyst on which a deactivating amount of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of nickel, iron, and vanadium has been deposited and at least one passivating material selected from tungsten and compounds of tungsten under elevated temperature conditions in an amount such as to add about 0.05 to 2 weight percent tungsten based on the weight of the untreated catalyst.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 38 words
A catalyst in accordance with claim 1 obtained by contacting the cracking catalyst with the passivating material at temperatures in the range of about 800° F. (427° C.) to about 1500° F. (816° C.) and under reducing conditions.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
A catalyst in accordance with claim 1 obtained by contacting the cracking catalyst with tungsten at temperatures in the range of about 800° F. (427° C.) to about 1500° F. (816° C.) and under reducing conditions.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
A catalyst in accordance with claim 1 obtained by contacting said cracking catalyst with a tungsten salt of thiophosphoric acid.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 13 words
A catalyst according to claim 4 wherein said tungsten salt is tungsten hexa(di-n-propylphosphorodithioate).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 26 words
A modified cracking catalyst obtained by contacting a zeolite-modified silica-alumina cracking catalyst and at least one passivating compound containing tungsten and phosphorus, under elevated temperature conditions.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 26 words
A modified cracking catalyst obtained by contacting a zeolite-modified silica-alumina cracking catalyst and at least one passivating compound containing tungsten and phosphorus, under elevated temperature conditions.
