Abstract:

A process for oligomerizing an olefin feedstock to produce an olgiomerization product, a method for analysing an oligomerization product, and an oligomerization product are disclosed. Preferably, the process comprises contacting the olefin feedstock with an oligomerization catalyst under effective oligomerization conditions, wherein the olefin feedstock comprises at least 50 wt % of one or more Colefins, based on the weight of the olefins in the olefin feedstock, and wherein the oligomerization catalyst comprises a crystalline molecular sieve, such as an intermediate pore size crystalline molecular sieve or a large pore size crystalline molecular sieve.
