Abstract
Abstract Zeolite containing cracking catalysts are prepared by combining an alumina stabilized crystalline zeolite with an inorganic oxide matrix. The alumina stabilized zeolite is obtained by precipitating hydrous alumina onto a finely divided zeolite under alkaline reaction conditions.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim
113 words
A method for preparing a zeolite containing hydrocarbon cracking catalyst which is selective for the production of gasoline fractions comprising: dispersing in an inorganic oxide matrix an alumina coated zeolite which is prepared by the process comprising: (a) preparing an aqueous slurry of finely divided zeolite, (b) continuously adding an acid aluminum salt solution and an alkali metal aluminate solution to said zeolite slurry under agitation to provide a reaction mixture wherein the pH remains at about 7 to 8 to precipitate hydrous alumina on said zeolite particles, and (c) adding a base to the reaction mixture to increase pH to a level of from about 9 to 11 to stabilize said alumina.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
113 words
A method for preparing a zeolite containing hydrocarbon cracking catalyst which is selective for the production of gasoline fractions comprising: dispersing in an inorganic oxide matrix an alumina coated zeolite which is prepared by the process comprising: (a) preparing an aqueous slurry of finely divided zeolite, (b) continuously adding an acid aluminum salt solution and an alkali metal aluminate solution to said zeolite slurry under agitation to provide a reaction mixture wherein the pH remains at about 7 to 8 to precipitate hydrous alumina on said zeolite particles, and (c) adding a base to the reaction mixture to increase pH to a level of from about 9 to 11 to stabilize said alumina.
