Abstract

A unique crystalline bis-ammonia transition metal molybdotungstate material has been developed. The material may be used as a hydroprocessing catalyst. The hydroprocessing may include hydrodenitrification, hydrodesulfurization, hydrodemetallation, hydrodearomatization, hydrodesilication, hydroisomerization, hydrotreating, hydrofining, and hydrocracking.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A crystalline bis-ammonia transition metal molybdotungstate material having the formula:
(NH 3 ) 2-n M(OH 2 ) n Mo x W y O z

where ‘n’ varies from 0.1 to 2.0; ‘M’ represents a metal selected from Mg, Mn, Fe, Co Ni, Cu, Zn and mixtures thereof; ‘x’ varies from 0.5 to 1.5; ‘y’ varies from 0.01 to 0.25; the sum of (x+y) must be ≤1.501; ‘z’ is a number which satisfies the sum of the valences of M, Mo and W; the material having a unique x-ray powder diffraction pattern showing peaks at the d-spacings listed in Table A:

2. The crystalline bis-ammonia transition metal molybdotungstate material of claim 1 wherein the crystalline bis-ammonia metal molybdotungstate material is present in a mixture with at least one binder and wherein the mixture comprises up to 25 wt % binder.

3. The crystalline bis-ammonia transition metal molybdotungstate material of claim 2 wherein the binder is selected from the group consisting of silicas, aluminas, and silica-aluminas.

4. The crystalline bis-ammonia transition metal molybdotungstate material of claim 1 wherein M is nickel or cobalt.

5. The crystalline bis-ammonia transition metal molybdotungstate material of claim 1 wherein M is nickel.

6. The crystalline bis-ammonia transition metal molybdotungstate material of claim 1 wherein the crystalline bis-ammonia metal molybdate material is sulfided.
