Applications
Potassium Butyl Xanthate is a versatile and powerful flotation collector with excellent selectivity, widely used in the mining industry for the following applications:
-
Sulfide Multi-Metallic Ores:
- Effective for flotation of copper ores, pyrite (e.g., chalcopyrite, sphalerite, and pyrite).
- Ideal for copper-nickel compound sulfide ores and gold ores associated with pyrite.
-
Oxide Ores:
- Provides satisfactory results for lead oxide and copper ores after activation with copper sulfate.
-
Flotation Processes:
- Commonly used in rough flotation and scavenging flotation.
- Suitable for selective flotation of copper sulfide minerals from iron sulfide minerals.
Dosage: Use as a 10%-20% solution, with a usual dosage of 10-100 g/ton depending on ore type and flotation conditions.
