Abstract
Methods are provided for using a dewaxing catalyst formed using at least two structure directing agents for production of a lubricant base stock. For example, ZSM-48 crystals formed using multiple directing agents (and/or formulated catalysts made using such crystals) can have an increased activity and/or can provide an improved yield during catalytic production of lubricant base stocks. Additionally or alternately, ZSM-48 crystals formed using multiple directing agents (and/or formulated catalysts made using such crystals) can provide improved aromatic saturation during processing of a feed for lubricant base stock production.
