Zusammenfassung:ZEOLITES EXCHANGED WITH LITHIUM IONS AND, OPTIONALLY, WITH POLYVALENT CATIONS ARE PREPARED BY ION-EXCHANGING A SODIUM-COATAINING ZEOLITE, A POTASSIUM-CONTAINING ZEOLITE OR A SODIUM-AND POTASSIUM-CONTAINING ZEOLITE WITH AMMONIUM IONS, THEREBY REPLACING THE SODIUM AND/OR POTASSIUM IONS WITH AMMONIUM IONS, AND THEN REACTING THE AMMONIUM ION-EXCHANGED ZEOLITE WITH A WATER-SOLUBLE LITHIUM COMPOUND UNDER CONDITIONS WHICH RESULT IN THE REMOVAL OF AMMONIA FROM THE REACTION ZONE. POLYVALENT IONS, WHICH MAY BE PRESENT IN THE ZEOLITE UNDERGOING ION-EXCHANGE, WILL NOT BE SUBSTANTIALLY REPLACED BY THE AMMONIUM OR LITHIUM IONS.
