Good Quality Sodium Butyl Xanthate for Mineral Processing Materials

Product introduction:

Sodium Butyl Xanthate (SBX), also known as Butyl Sodium Xanthate, has the molecular formulaC₄H₉OCSSNa. The appearance is light yellow to grayish white powder or rod-shaped solid, with a pungent sulfide odor, easily soluble in water, and the aqueous solution is alkaline. This product is prone to decomposition when exposed to acid, releasing carbon disulfide. It needs to be sealed and stored in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture and heat.

Product uses:

Sodium Butyl Xanthate is a widely used collector in the field of sulfide ore flotation, suitable for flotation of various non-ferrous metal sulfide ores such as copper, lead, zinc, nickel, etc. It exhibits good capture effects on chalcopyrite, sphalerite, pyrite, and sphalerite activated by copper sulfate, and can also be used for preferential flotation of sulfide copper ore from sulfide iron ore. In addition, this product can also be used for flotation of partially oxidized copper and lead ore.

Product advantage:

The core advantage of sodium Butyl Xanthate lies in the balance between its capture ability and selectivity. Compared with ethylxanthate, its carbon chain is longer and its ability to capture sulfide minerals is significantly enhanced; Compared with amyl xanthate, it maintains good selectivity and is suitable for priority flotation operations of complex ores. This product also has certain foaming performance, which can reduce the amount of additional foaming agent used in the flotation process. Under appropriate pH conditions, Sodium Butyl Xanthate can achieve selective flotation goals such as copper lead separation and copper zinc separation, providing flexible reagent system adjustment space for mineral processing enterprises.
