Disclosed are zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) compositions in which at least a portion of the ligands in its shell have been exchanged with other ligands, and methods of making such shell-ligand-exchanged ZIFs. Also disclosed is the use of such shell-ligand-exchanged ZIFs in hydrocarbon separation processes.

Ligand-exchanged zeolite imidazolate frameworks

Methods are provided for performing fluid catalytic cracking (and/or other hydrothermal processing for cracking of hydrocarbons) on a feedstock containing hydrocarbons in the presence of a catalyst that includes zeolite Beta that is stabilized toward hydrothermal conditions. The hydrothermally stabilized zeolite Beta (including any of the various polymorphs) corresponds to zeolite Beta that is formed without the use of an organic structure directing agent, and that is further stabilized by addition of one or more stabilizers, such as lanthanide series elements or phosphorus.

Stabilization of zeolite beta for FCC processes

Viscous aqueous injections fluids including polymers having hydrophilic moieties and hydrophobic groups and at least one of crude oil emulsions and amphiphilic diblock copolymers are provided herein. Methods of making the aqueous injection fluids, and methods of using the aqueous injection fluids for oil recovery are also provided.

Injection fluids for oil recovery and methods of making and using the same

A novel zeolitic imidazolate framework material comprises a partially saturated benzimidazole or a partially saturated substituted benzimidazole as a linking ligand, optionally together with unsaturated benzimidazole or an unsaturated substituted benzimidazole as a further linking ligand.

Zeolitic imidazolate framework materials, their synthesis and use

The disclosure is related to various modified EMM-23 materials, processes, and uses of the same.

Hydrogenation catalysts for aromatic hydrogenation including an organosilica material support, which is a polymer comprising independent units of a monomer of Formula [ZOZOSiCH](I), wherein each Zand Zindependently represent a hydrogen atom, a C-Calkyl group or a bond to a silicon atom of another monomer; and at least one catalyst metal are provided herein. Methods of making the hydrogenation catalysts and processes of using, e.g., aromatic hydrogenation, the hydrogenation catalyst are also provided herein.

A molecular sieve having the framework structure of ZSM-5 is described comprising crystals having an external surface area in excess of 100 m/g (as determined by the t-plot method for nitrogen physisorption) and a unique X-ray diffraction pattern.

Small crystal ZSM-5, its synthesis and use

Catalyst compositions with improved alkylation activity and corresponding methods for making such catalyst compositions are provided. The catalyst(s) correspond to solid acid catalysts formed by exposing a catalyst precursor with a zeolitic framework structure to a molten metal salt that includes fluorine, such as a molten metal fluoride. The resulting fluorinated solid acid catalysts can have improved alkylation activity while having a reduced or minimized amount of structural change due to the exposure to the molten metal fluoride. This is in contrast to fluorinated solid acid catalysts that are exposed to higher severity forms of fluorination, such as exposure to ammonium fluoride or HF. SnFis an example of a suitable molten metal fluoride.

Alkylation catalyst

Organosilica materials, which are a polymer of at least one independent monomer of Formula [ZOZOSiCH](I), wherein each Zand Zindependently represent a hydrogen atom, a C-Calkyl group or a bond to a silicon atom of another monomer and at least one other trivalent metal oxide monomer are provided herein. Methods of preparing and processes of using the organosilica materials, e.g., for catalysis etc., are also provided herein.

Organosilica materials and uses thereof

A novel metal organic framework, EMM-33, is described having the structure of UiO-67 and comprising bisphosphonate linking ligands. EMM-33 has acid activity and is useful as a catalyst in olefin isomerization. Also disclosed is a process of making metal organic frameworks, such as EMM-33, by heterogeneous ligand exchange, in which linking ligands having a first bonding functionality in a host metal organic framework are exchanged with linking ligands having a second different bonding functionality in the framework.
