Isopropyl Ethyl Thionocarbamate CAS: 141-98-0
Description
An excellent collector in flotating nonferros metallic sulfides, with less collecting pyrite and higher selectivity for copper and a special efficiency in separation, using the collector affording higher quality of concentrate with low amoumt of arsentic.
Packing
200kg net plastic drum or 1000kg net IBC Drum
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, ventilated warehouse.
FAQ
Q1: What is the physical index and appearance of this Isopropyl Ethyl Thionocarbamate?
A: It is amber to dark brown oily liquid; minimum purity ≥95%, specific gravity 0.968~1.04 at 20℃; residual isopropyl alcohol ≤2.0% max, thiourea impurity ≤0.5% max.
Q2: What’s its main application in mineral flotation?
A: It is high-selectivity flotation collector for non-ferrous metal sulfide ores, mainly applied for copper sulfide flotation, used to separate copper from pyrite, arsenic-bearing gangue minerals.
Q3: What core advantages does it have compared with conventional xanthate collectors?
A: 1. Poor collecting ability to pyrite, greatly improving selectivity toward copper mineral;
2. Effective removal of arsenic impurity from copper concentrate, to produce low-arsenic high-grade copper concentrate;
3. Better separation performance to simplify copper-sulfur separation flotation circuit.
Q4: Which types of copper ore are most suitable for this reagent?
A: Ideal for arsenic-containing copper sulfide ore, chalcopyrite ore, mixed copper-pyrite ores that need copper/sulfur separation and arsenic reduction in concentrate.
Q5: Can it be used alone or mixed with other flotation reagents?
A: Available for single dosing; also compatible with xanthate, dithiophosphate for combined flotation to optimize recovery and concentrate quality according to ore properties.
Q6: What are standard packing specifications for shipment?
A: Regular packing: 200kg net plastic drum and 1000kg net IBC tank; customized packaging is negotiable.
Q7: How should we store the finished product?
A: Store in cool, dry, ventilated warehouse, avoid high temperature, direct sunlight and incompatible strong oxidizer storage together.
