The compounds can be prepared from a forming solution or gel comprising a source of aluminum, a source of phosphorus, a source of a diamine as defined hereinabove and optionally a source of at least one metal moiety MeO, wherein the appropriate forming components are initially present in specific molar ratios and which mixture is kept at elevated temperature for a period of time sufficient to produce a crystalline aluminophosphate or related compound, followed by separating off the crystalline product obtained and drying, and which may subsequently be calcined.
A method for converting starting material to olefins comprising contacting the starting material with a small pore non-zeolitic molecular sieve catalyst under effective conditions to produce olefins, wherein the non-zeolitic molecular sieve has been prepared in-situ or modified after synthesis by incorporation using an alkaline earth metal compound, wherein the alkaline earth metal ion is selected from the group consisting of strontium, calcium, barium, and mixtures thereof.
This invention relates to novel silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieves. These sieves are represented by the empirical formula: where R represents at least one organic templating agent present in the intracrystalline pore system; m is the molar amount of R per mole of (Si.sub.x Al.sub.y P.sub.z)O.sub.2 and has a value from zero to about 0.3; x is the mole fraction of silicon and varies from about 0.01 to about 0.98, y is the mole fraction of aluminum and varies from about 0.01 to about 0.60, z is the mole fraction of phosphorus and varies from about 0.01 to about 0.52 and x+y+z=1. These sieves have the structure of SAPO-36 or SAPO-56 and are useful as hydrocarbon conversion processes.

This invention provides a method for preparing non-zeolitic molecular sieves using inexpensive reagents and at lower manufacturing cost. The method includes using a low density, small size particulate hydrated alumina, such as aluminum hydroxide, in place of aluminum alkoxides and other more costly reagents. The preferred particulate hydrated alumina has a density of less than 1.0 g/cm.sup.3, an average particle size of less than about 40 microns and an alkali content of less than 0.12 wt %.
The invention is directed to a method of synthesizing aluminophosphate and silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieves and in particular to the synthesis of aluminophosphate and silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieves using the synthesis templates that contain two dimethylamino moieties in combination with hydrogen fluoride. The use of this template in combination with hydrogen fluoride results in good quality SAPO molecular sieves of CHA framework type with low levels of silicon that are produced in relatively short crystallization times.
