A molecular sieve has a silica/alumina molar ratio of 100-300, and has a mesopore structure. One closed hysteresis loop appears in the range of P/P.sub.0=0.4-0.99 in the low temperature nitrogen gas adsorption-desorption curve, and the starting location of the closed hysteresis loop is in the range of P/P.sub.0=0.4-0.7. The catalyst formed from the molecular sieve as a solid acid not only has a good capacity of isomerization to reduce the freezing point, but also can produce a high yield of the product with a lower pour point. The process for preparing the catalyst involves steps including crystallization, filtration, calcination, and hydrothermal treatment.

A SCM-33 molecular sieve has a schematic chemical composition as shown in the formula “SiO.sub.2.Math.1/x XO.sub.1.5.Math.m MO.sub.0.5”, wherein X is a framework trivalent element, the Si/X molar ratio x is ≥5, M is a framework equilibrium cation, and the M/Si molar ratio is 0 <m≤1. The molecular sieve is a novel molecular sieve with RTE topology and the molecular sieve requires short preparation time, involves a low synthesis cost and can be used as adsorbent or catalyst.

A modified β zeolite has 0.5-15 wt % of an IVB group metal element in terms of oxide on the dry basis weight of the modified β zeolite. The number of medium strong acid centers of the modified β zeolite accounts for 30-60% of the total acid amount, the number of strong acid centers accounts for 5-25% of the total acid amount, and the ratio of B acid to L acid is 0.8 or more. The ratio of the weight content of the IVB group metal element in the modified β zeolite body phase to the weight content of the IVB group metal element on the surface is 0.1-0.8. The catalytic cracking catalyst containing the modified β zeolite has good selectivity and yield of C4 olefin.

Provided are zeolite catalysts that allow reactions to proceed at temperatures as low as possible when lower olefins are produced from hydrocarbon feedstocks with low boiling points such as light naphtha, make it possible to make propylene yield higher than ethylene yield in the production of lower olefins, and have long lifetime. The zeolite catalysts are used in the production of lower olefins from hydrocarbon feedstocks with low boiling points such as light naphtha. The zeolite catalysts are MFI-type crystalline aluminosilicates containing iron atoms and have molar ratios of iron atoms to total moles of iron atoms and aluminum atoms in the range from 0.4 to 0.7. The use of the zeolite catalysts make it possible to increase propylene yield, to lower reaction temperatures, and to extend catalyst lifetime.

The present disclosure is directed to novel phyllosilicate compositions designated CIT-13P and methods of producing and using the same.

Gallium-68 generators that are capable of producing gallium-68 from a germanium-68 source material are disclosed. The source material may be a matrix material (e.g., zeolite) in which germanium-68 is isomorphously substituted for central atoms in tetrahedra within the matrix material. Methods for forming gallium-68 generators are also disclosed.
