Abstract

Abstract Pressed objects (slugs) of pyrogenically produced oxides such as SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 and TiO 2 are produced using a silica sol and water. As molding assistants thereby there is employed a polyhydric alcohol, e.g. glycerine or sorbitol. The water can be added adsorbed on a pyrogenically produced hydrophobized silica. The pressed object obtained can be used inter alia as catalyst carrier.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim 97 words
A process for the production of a pressed object from a pyrogenically produced oxide which is an oxide of a metal, an oxide of a metalloid or a mixture thereof containing intensively mixing the pyrogenic oxide with water, silica sol and a polyhydric alcohol as a mold assistant which is ethanediol, glycerine, erythritol, pentitol or hexitol, and forming a flowable powder from the mixture, shaping the flowable powder by pressing to form a pressed object, slowly predrying the pressed object at a temperature up to 100° C. and subsequently tempering the predried pressed object at 450°-700° C.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 97 words
A process for the production of a pressed object from a pyrogenically produced oxide which is an oxide of a metal, an oxide of a metalloid or a mixture thereof containing intensively mixing the pyrogenic oxide with water, silica sol and a polyhydric alcohol as a mold assistant which is ethanediol, glycerine, erythritol, pentitol or hexitol, and forming a flowable powder from the mixture, shaping the flowable powder by pressing to form a pressed object, slowly predrying the pressed object at a temperature up to 100° C. and subsequently tempering the predried pressed object at 450°-700° C.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the pyrogenic oxide is pyrogenically produced silica, aluminum oxide or titanium oxide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the polyhydric alcohol is used in an amount of 2 to 30% of the weight of the total mixture.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
A process according to claim 3 wherein the polyhydric alcohol is used in an amount of 2 to 10% of the weight of the total mixture.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
A process according to claim 3 wherein the polyhydric alcohol is glycerine or sorbitol.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 26 words
A process according to claim 2 wherein the compressing is carried out to produce a pressed object having 50-60% of the volume as accessible pore space.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 13 words

Dependent Claim 24 words
A process according to claim 2 wherein a portion of the water is employed in a form bound to a pyrogenically produced hydrophobized silica.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 23 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein a portion of water is employed in a form bound to a pyrogenically produced hydrophobized silica.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 10 words
A pressed object prepared by the process of claim 1.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 10 words
A pressed object prepared by the process of claim 2.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim 10 words
A pressed object prepared by the process of claim 3.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim 10 words
A pressed object prepared by the process of claim 6.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim 10 words
A pressed object prepared by the process of claim 10.
Claim 18
Dependent Claim 10 words
A pressed object produced by the process of claim 11.
