Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim 177 words
A method for synthesizing a crystalline silicate ZSM- 5 exhibiting a characteristic X-ray diffraction pattern as shown in Table 1 of the specification, which comprises (i) preparing a mixture capable of forming said crystalline silicate, said mixture comprising sources of alkali metal cations, hexaalkylhexamethylenediammonium cations, an oxide of silicon, and water and having a composition, in terms of mole ratios, within the following ranges: SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 : 25 to ∞ H 2 O/SiO 2 : 0.2 to 120 OH - /SiO 2 : 0.02 to 0.50 (M 2 O+RO)/SiO 2 : 0.02 to 2.0 RO/(RO+M 2 O): 0.2 to 0.95 wherein M is said alkali metal cation and R is said hexaalkylhexamethylenediammonium cation, alkyl being propyl, butyl or a mixture thereof, (ii) maintaining the mixture at a temperature of from about 90° C. to about 225° C. until crystals of the crystalline silicate are formed and (iii) recovering the crystalline silicate ZSM-5 from step (ii), said recovered crystalline silicate containing alkali metal and hexaalkylhexamethylenediammonium cations, alkyl being propyl, butyl or a mixture thereof.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 177 words
A method for synthesizing a crystalline silicate ZSM- 5 exhibiting a characteristic X-ray diffraction pattern as shown in Table 1 of the specification, which comprises (i) preparing a mixture capable of forming said crystalline silicate, said mixture comprising sources of alkali metal cations, hexaalkylhexamethylenediammonium cations, an oxide of silicon, and water and having a composition, in terms of mole ratios, within the following ranges: SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 : 25 to ∞ H 2 O/SiO 2 : 0.2 to 120 OH - /SiO 2 : 0.02 to 0.50 (M 2 O+RO)/SiO 2 : 0.02 to 2.0 RO/(RO+M 2 O): 0.2 to 0.95 wherein M is said alkali metal cation and R is said hexaalkylhexamethylenediammonium cation, alkyl being propyl, butyl or a mixture thereof, (ii) maintaining the mixture at a temperature of from about 90° C. to about 225° C. until crystals of the crystalline silicate are formed and (iii) recovering the crystalline silicate ZSM-5 from step (ii), said recovered crystalline silicate containing alkali metal and hexaalkylhexamethylenediammonium cations, alkyl being propyl, butyl or a mixture thereof.
