This invention relates to a process for the preparation of solid dispersions of acid salts of tetravalent metals having lamellar structure and their salt derivatives in a silica matrix, said process consisting in a delamination of the compounds mentioned above by means of an amine, till obtaining a colloidal dispersion, in the operation of mixing said colloidal dispersion with water solutions of silica, in the gelling of silica, possibly in the process of eluting the gel products with a mineral or organic acid, and in a heat treatment at a temperature between 80 DEG C and 650 DEG C. The solid dispersions so obtained have large surface areas and can be employed as cationic exchangers; in addition, their acidity is such as to make them suitable as catalysts for acid-catalyzed reactions. |
