FAQ
Q1: What are the physical and chemical specifications of this product?
A: It is faint yellow to russet liquid; effective mineral content 49~53%, pH value ranges from 10 to 13 under normal condition. Its molecular formula is ((CH3)2CHCH2O)2PSSNa and [(CH3(CH2)3O)2PSSNa].
Q2: What kinds of ores can this dithiophosphate collect for flotation?
A: It works as high-efficiency collector for copper sulfide ore, zinc sulfide ore, as well as precious metal ores containing gold and silver.
Q3: What’s its feature on pyrite collection in alkaline flotation circuit?
A: It has weak collecting capacity for pyrite under alkaline pulp condition, showing good selectivity to separate copper/zinc from pyrite gangue.
Q4: Does this reagent have frothing performance?
A: Yes, it comes with weak inherent frothing property, which can partially reduce the addition amount of extra frother in flotation flowsheet.
Q5: How to use it together with other flotation collectors?
A: Usually applied alone or blended with xanthate to improve metal recovery rate and concentrate grade for complex multi-metal sulfide ores.
Q6: What’s the standard export packing option?
A: Regular packages: 200kg net plastic drum or 1000kg IBC tote tank, customized package is available on client’s request.
Q7: What is the proper storage requirement?
A: Keep stored in cool, dry and ventilated warehouse, avoid high temperature and direct sunlight exposure.
