Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 86 words
A process for producing a monolithic ceramic article comprising sintering at a temperature from about 900° C. to about 1350° C. a shaped zeolite charge comprised of one or more zeolites having Si/Al atomic ratios from about 0.7 to about 3 selected from the group consisting of zeolites of the Ca-forms of zeolites X, Y, and A, the (Ca, Mg)-forms of zeolites X, Y, and A, and the Mg-forms of zeolites X, Y, and A, with the resulting ceramic article being anorthite, cordierite, or anorthite-cordierite based.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 86 words
A process for producing a monolithic ceramic article comprising sintering at a temperature from about 900° C. to about 1350° C. a shaped zeolite charge comprised of one or more zeolites having Si/Al atomic ratios from about 0.7 to about 3 selected from the group consisting of zeolites of the Ca-forms of zeolites X, Y, and A, the (Ca, Mg)-forms of zeolites X, Y, and A, and the Mg-forms of zeolites X, Y, and A, with the resulting ceramic article being anorthite, cordierite, or anorthite-cordierite based.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
