Sodium Amyl Xanthate  99% Chemical Appearance

Sodium Amyl Xanthate 99% is a sightly yellow or grey yellow powder or pellet. It is soluble in water and decomposes easily in the presence of acid and heat. It has a very pungent odour.

Chemical Applications and Strengths

Sodium Amyl Xanthate  99%  is an extremely efficient chemical compound and therefore, has many industrial applications. It is most widely used as a very strong  collector in the mining industry. Its main applications and strengths are:

• It is used as a collector in the mining industry. Collectors are chemicals that selectively attach to the surface of the mineral, making the mineral hydrophobic. Hydrophobicity is necessary for air bubble attachment in the precious metal extraction processes.
• Its the most powerful collector among the xanthates.
• Mining companies extensively use this chemical in the flotation of sulfide ores. It serves as an effective collector for copper-nickel sulfide ores and for gold associated with pyrite.

  The chemical also supports the flotation of various non-ferrous metal minerals. Industries use it in several hydrometallurgical processes and as a vulcanization accelerator in rubber manufacturing.

  Because it acts as a powerful collector, mining companies commonly use it in rougher flotation circuits to recover valuable minerals from ore.

  Storage

  Store the chemical in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep it away from heat, water, and moisture to maintain its stability and performance.
