ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a novel beidellite layered clay, a process for preparing the clay and a process using the clay. The clay is characterized in that it is substantially free of sodium cations, is composed of crystals whose average crystallites size is about 50-150 Angstroms, has a surface area of at least 80 m.sup.2 /g and has its 060 X-ray diffraction peak at a d-spacing of 1.50 Angstroms. The clay is prepared from a reaction mixture containing reactive sources of aluminum and silicon, a templating agent and water. Examples of templating agents are quaternary ammonium compounds such as tetramethylammonium hydroxide. Reactive source of aluminum and silicon include boehmite alumina and colloidal silica. The mixture is reacted at a pH of about 8.5 to about 14, a temperature of about 150.degree. to about 210.degree. C. for a time of about 1 to about 20 days. The clay composition may be used as is or after pillaring to catalyze hydrocarbon conversion processes such as alkylation.
