Potassium Amyl Xanthate

It adsorbs onto sulphide mineral surfaces and renders them hydrophobic so that air bubbles can carry them into the froth, while gangue remains wetted and reports to tailings. Collector choice, dosage point and dosage rate are metallurgical decisions taken against your own ore, grind and water chemistry, and are established by trial rather than published here.

The ore and the mineral you are trying to float decide the collector before anything else, because chain length trades selectivity against collecting strength. After that, the presentation your dosing system can handle — pellet, granular or powder — the active content convention your metallurgy reports use, decomposition and storage behaviour, and the documentation your site requires decide the material quoted. Reagent selection is confirmed by plant or laboratory trial on your own ore, never assumed from a catalogue page.

The xanthate collectors form one chemical family in which the alcohol chain and the alkali cation change collecting power and selectivity. Short-chain xanthates are more selective and weaker collectors; longer chains collect more strongly and less selectively. Each xanthate on this catalogue therefore has its own canonical page because it is a different chemical with a different metallurgical behaviour, not a grade of another. Pellet, powder and flake presentations, solution strengths and packaging formats are handled inside each record and are never published as separate pages. Dithiophosphates, thionocarbamates and frothers are different reagent classes with their own pages.

Suppliers report active content, solution strength, particle presentation and impurity limits in different conventions, and the numbers are not interchangeable between them. State the convention your specification uses along with the property window you actually need, and comparison is made like for like against producer data for the grade offered.

This page asserts no purity, assay, active content, concentration, moisture, pH, density, dosage rate, performance figure, approval, registration, certification, origin, packing, minimum quantity, availability, lead time or price. Every commercially meaningful value is taken from producer documentation for the exact grade offered and confirmed in writing before order.

Allzone sources this material through producer channels and quotes it per enquiry. Origin, production route and shipping point are selected against your technical requirement, quantity, documentation need and destination, and are stated in the offer rather than fixed by this page. Freight, discharge point and packaging format move landed cost, so quotations are compared delivered to your plant.

Technical data sheet, safety data sheet and certificate of analysis for the exact grade offered are requested from the producer and shared with the quotation. Handling, storage, incompatibility and personal-protection requirements are treated as SDS questions for the specific grade rather than figures published here. Where a declaration matters to your application — food contact, cosmetic, potable water, feed or regulatory — it is confirmed for that grade and intended use rather than assumed from this page.

Send the process it goes into, the function you need it to perform, the property window your specification calls for in your own convention, the annual and per-shipment quantity, the packaging format your intake can receive, the documentation required per shipment and the delivery province or port. Several materials can be listed in one enquiry and reviewed together rather than split into separate requests.
