Abstract:

A film is placed over a mold cavity extending over the mold cavity rim. The film is held in place over the mold cavity by a frame member which engages the film adjacent the mold cavity rim. The frame is magnetically secured in place over the mold cavity rim to hold the film over the mold cavity rim. Molten plastic is provided over the film and the film and plastic is formed into a molded article having the shape of the mold cavity.

Abstract:

This disclosure relates to a novel method of making and recovering M41S family molecular sieve materials using synthesis mixtures having high solids-content and without a purification step. The solids-content, for example, is in a range from about 20 wt. % to 50 wt. %. The method also includes the step of mixing at least a portion of the M41S made with another material to form a composition, wherein the amount of said material to be mixed with said M41S product is such that said composition having less than 10 wt. % free fluid. The material mixed with the M41S made includes metal oxides, metal nitrides, metal carbides and mixtures thereof, as well as absorptive material capable of absorbing mother liquor and selected from the group consisting of carbon silica, alumina, titania, zirconia and mixtures thereof. The amount of the wastewater generated by this novel method is reduced by at least 50% to as much as 100% as comparing with conventional method of making M41S materials. By reducing and/or eliminating at least a portion of the wastewater generated in the synthesis product, the new method reduces cost of making of M41S materials and provides a more environmentally-friendly synthesis product.

Abstract:

In a process for producing a phosphorus-modified zeolite catalyst, an aqueous reaction mixture comprising a source of silica and a source of an organic directing agent effective to direct the synthesis of a desired zeolite is heated at a temperature and for a time sufficient to produce crystals of the desired zeolite. Wet zeolite crystals can then be separated from the reaction mixture and, without removing all the water from the wet zeolite crystals, the zeolite can be converted into the ammonium form by ion exchange, and the crystals can be treated with a phosphorus compound. The phosphorus-treated, ammonium-exchanged zeolite can then be formed into a catalyst to be heated in one or more stages to remove the water and organic directing agent from the zeolite crystals and to convert the zeolite to the hydrogen form.
