Abstract

Abstract The invention is directed to a process for the production of zeolites of the type Na A4 having the surface modified with organosilanes. The organosilane must have at least one alkoxy group bonded to the silicon atom. The modified zeolites of the invention are used in washing and cleansing agents.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 23
Claim 1
Independent Claim 92 words
A process for the production of a crystalline zeolite in the sodium form having the surface modified with an organosilane comprising reacting the zeolite with 0.02 to 5 weight % based on the amount of zeolite employed of an organosilane of the formula R.sub.n.sup.1 SiR.sup.2 (OR).sub.3-n where R and R 1 are C 1 -C 5 alkyl, methoxy, ethoxy, phenyl, or C 5 to C 8 cycloalkyl and R 2 is a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms and free from ethylenic unsaturation and n is 0, 1, or 2.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 92 words
A process for the production of a crystalline zeolite in the sodium form having the surface modified with an organosilane comprising reacting the zeolite with 0.02 to 5 weight % based on the amount of zeolite employed of an organosilane of the formula R.sub.n.sup.1 SiR.sup.2 (OR).sub.3-n where R and R 1 are C 1 -C 5 alkyl, methoxy, ethoxy, phenyl, or C 5 to C 8 cycloalkyl and R 2 is a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms and free from ethylenic unsaturation and n is 0, 1, or 2.
