Abstract
Reduced downgrading in xylene isomerization of ethylbenzene-depleted feeds is achieved by carrying the process out over gallosilicate or borosilicate zeolites, preferably in the form of compositions comprising a core of catalytically-inactive crystalline silica with an overlying zeolite layer. The composites are prepared by introducing preformed silica particles, preferably with a crystallite size greater than 0.1.mu., into a reaction mixture comprising a silicon source, a source of the modifying element, and preferably an organic template such as a tetraalkylammonium compound. The weight ratio of the silica core to SiO.sub.2 in the reaction mixture is preferably 0.5:1 to 25:1.
