Patent ID: 10611645

Abstract:
A new crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite comprising a novel framework has been synthesized that has been designated UZM-55. This zeolite is represented by a three-dimensional framework of at least SiO2 tetrahedral units and an empirical composition in the as-synthesized and anhydrous basis expressed by an empirical formula of: Mmn+RrAlxEySiOz  where M represents a metal or metals from zinc or Group 1 (IUPAC 1), Group 2 (IUPAC 2), Group 3 (IUPAC 3) or the lanthanide series of the periodic table, R is a structure directing agent or agents such as 1,6-bis(N-methylpiperidinium)hexane, and E is an element selected from the group consisting of gallium, iron, boron and mixtures thereof. Catalysts made from UZM-55 have utility in various hydrocarbon conversion reactions including methanol to hydrocarbons (MTH).
