Abstract
1. Mordenite catalysts dealuminated by 50% show the highest activity for the isomerization of o-xylene. 2. At low degree of conversion, the ratio of the disproportionation and isomerization rates of o-xylene is independent of the aluminum content of the mordenite framework, and the closer one approaches equilibrium, the more the disproportionation contribution increases with increasing degree of dealumination.
