Product Description:
Sodium Butyl Xanthate (SBX) is a widely utilized flotation collector in the mineral processing industry. It is an efficient reagent for the separation of valuable minerals from gangue through the froth flotation method. SBX is an organic sulfur compound that chemisorbs onto the surface of mineral particles, making them hydrophobic and allowing them to be selectively collected in the froth phase.
Key Features:
High Efficiency: SBX effectively promotes the selective flotation of sulfide and other minerals, improving the efficiency of mineral recovery.
Versatility: Compatible with various ore types and can be used in combination with other flotation reagents for customized separation processes.
Stability: Exhibits stability in a range of pH conditions, making it suitable for different flotation environments.
Environmental Consideration: While all xanthates require careful handling, SBX is biodegradable and has a lower environmental impact compared to some other collectors.
Applications:
Froth Flotation: Used in the flotation of non-ferrous and precious metal ores, such as copper, lead, zinc, and others.
Mineral Processing: Improves the efficiency of mineral beneficiation processes, leading to higher recovery rates and purity of the end product.
Sodium Butyl Xanthate is a strong collector, which is mainly used in the flotation of non-ferrous minerals that require strong harvesting power without selectivity. For example, it is a good collector for the flotation of oxidized sulfide ore or oxidized copper ore and lead oxide ore (vulcanized by sodium sulfide). The product can also achieve better sorting effect on the flotation of Cu-Ni sulfide ore and pyrite bearing ore.
