Abstract

A process is disclosed for the catalytic dewaxing of a hydrocarbon oil feed comprising waxy molecules, which process comprises: PA1 contacting a feed under catalytic dewaxing conditions with a catalyst composition comprising a molecular sieve containing crystallites covalently bound alumina moieties in its framework and having pores with a diameter in the range of from 0.35 to 0.80 nm and recovering a product having a reduced pour point, wherein the molecular sieve has been modified to reduce the mole percentage of alumina by coating the surface of the crystallites with a refractory inorganic oxide which is essentially free of alumina.
