Product Introduction

Sodium Butyl Xanthate (SBX) is an efficient collector widely used in the froth flotation of sulfide minerals. Classified as a medium-length chain xanthate, it provides a strong collecting power that surpasses shorter-chain variants like ethyl xanthate, while maintaining better selectivity than longer-chain amyl xanthate. This yellow to pale yellow solid is particularly effective in the flotation of copper, lead, zinc, and iron sulfide ores. It demonstrates excellent performance in both acidic and alkaline pulp conditions.

SBX is highly valued for its strong affinity with pyrite and its ability to improve the recovery of associated gold. It offers rapid adsorption kinetics and good solubility in water, facilitating efficient mineral separation. Its reliable performance and cost-effectiveness make it a popular choice in many base metal flotation plants worldwide.


Product Advantage

1.Sodium Butyl Xanthate (SBX) offers a superior balance in flotation performance, positioning itself ideally between shorter and longer-chain xanthates. It delivers significantly stronger collecting power than ethyl xanthate, ensuring high recovery rates, while maintaining better selectivity than amyl xanthate, which helps in producing a higher-grade concentrate by reducing gangue entrainment.

2.This collector is highly versatile and cost-effective. It performs reliably across a wide range of sulfide ores, including copper, lead, zinc, and is particularly effective for pyrite and gold-associated minerals. Its good solubility and rapid adsorption kinetics ensure efficient operation in various circuit configurations.

3.These combined advantages make SBX a preferred and economical choice for many flotation plants, especially in bulk sulfide flotation and base metal recovery, where an optimal balance of recovery and selectivity is required for operational efficiency and profitability.
