Abstract

Octane and total yield improvement in catalytic cracking of petroleum fractions under cracking conditions can be obtained by adding to conventional cracking catalysts small amounts of an additive catalyst comprising a class of zeolites characterized by a silica to alumina mole ratio greater than 12 and a constraint index of 1 to 12 wherein the zeolite additive catalyst has a crystal size of between 0.2 to 10 microns.
