Abstract
A family of new crystalline molecular sieves designated SSZ-91 is disclosed. Molecular sieve SSZ-91 is structurally similar to sieves falling within the ZSM-48 family of molecular sieves, and is characterized as: (1) having a low degree of faulting, (2) a low aspect ratio that inhibits hydrocracking as compared to conventional ZSM-48 materials having an aspect ratio of greater than 8, and (3) is substantially phase pure.
Claims30
A molecular sieve belonging to the ZSM-48 family of zeolites, wherein the molecular sieve comprises:
- a silicon oxide to aluminum oxide mole ratio of 40 to 200,
- at least 70% polytype 6 of the total ZSM-48 family material present in the product, and
- an additional EUO framework molecular sieve phase in an amount of between 0 and 3.5 percent by weight of the total product;
- and
- wherein the molecular sieve has a morphology characterized as polycrystalline aggregates comprising crystallites collectively having an average aspect ratio of between 1 and 8.
