ALKYLATION CATALYST AND RELATED PROCESS

摘要

A solid alkylation catalyst having a hydrogenation metal and a solid acid in the form of a rare earth exchanged molecular sieve, wherein the catalyst is at least characterized by a porosity of less than 0.20 ml/g in pores below 100 nm in diameter, and a total porosity of greater than 0.30 ml/g. A process for alkylation using the catalyst is also described.
