Abstract
A process for the preparation of aliphatic alcohols by hydration of olefins in the presence of a catalyst comprising a zeolitic crystalline silicoaluminate of the offretite type. The offretite used can be natural or sythetic. Particularly convenient among the olefins are olefins of low molecular weight having up to 5 carbon atoms. The alcohols obtained are used as solvents, as bases for lubricants and as adjuvants of essences.
