A process for catalytic cracking, isomerizing of reforming of a hydrocarbon feed stock comprises the step of passing said hydrocarbon feed stock through a catalyst bed at cracking, isomerizing or reforming conditions to crack, isomerize or reform said hydrocarbon feed stock, wherein the catalyst composition in the catalyst bed, comprises a pillared fluorotetrasilicic mica, wherein said pillared fluorotetrasilicic mica has a specific surface area exceeding 75 m<2>/gm, wherein the mica is pillared by alumina, zirconia or chromia, and the aluminum, zirconium or chromium content is at least 8% by weight. In the catalytic cracking process, there is less carbon and hydrogen formed than in comparative processes, and the cracked product contains a relatively high proportion of C3 and C4 olefins. |
