description

Abstract A large variety of zeolite topologies including: large pore tridirectional (Beta), large pore unidirectional (Mordenite, SSZ-24), bidirectional 10 member ring pores (MRP) (ZSM-5), bidirectional 10 × 8 MRP (Ferrierite), tridirectional with connected 12 and 10 MRP (CIT-1), bidirectional with 12 MRP connected by 10 MRP (NU-87), tridirectional with 10 × 11 × 12 MRP (NU-86), and finally 10 MRP, and independent 12 MR cavities connected by 10 MR windows (MCM-22), have been studied as catalysts for the cracking of a gasoline range model molecule ( n -heptane). Kinetic and decay constants as well as selectivity parameters such as paraffin/olefin, i -C 4 / n -C 4 , i -C 5 / n -C 5 , C 3 /C 4 and C 2 /C 5 have been used to discuss the behaviour of the above zeolite structures as potential FCC additives.
