Abstract

Abstract A novel solid phosphoric acid catalyst composition is disclosed. The composite comprises solid phosphoric acid and a refractory oxide binder. The composite is characterized in that 25.0 volume percent or less of the total catalyst pore volume consists of pores having a diameter of 10,000 ANGSTROM or greater. An improvement in catalyst activity and stability is observed when such a catalyst is utilized in a hydrocarbon conversion process.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 71 words

Claim 2
Dependent Claim 71 words
A solid phosphoric acid composite comprising one or more acids of pentacovalent phosphorus in an amount from about 60 to about 88 weight percent of the composite, adsorbed on a binder which is a refractory inorganic oxide or a siliceous material, said composite having a pore volume no more than 0.28 cc/g with 25 percent or less of the pore volume arising from pores with a diameter greater than 10,000 Å.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
The solid phosphoric acid composite of claim 1 where the refractory inorganic oxide is selected from the group consisting of alumina, magnesium oxide, calcium oxide, titanium oxide, and phosphorus oxides.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 31 words
The solid phosphoric acid composite of claim 1 where the siliceous material is selected from the group consisting of silicas, kieselguhr, diatomaceous earth, infusorial earth, kaolin, fullers earth, or combinations thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
The solid phosphoric acid composite of claim 3 where the siliceous material is diatomaceous earth, kieselguhr, an artificially prepared porous silica, or combinations thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 22 words
