Product Description: Potassium Amyl Xanthate (PAX) is a highly effective collector that plays a critical role in the froth flotation process of sulfide ores in the mining industry. As a potassium salt of aliphatic xanthic acid, it is renowned for its selectivity and superior effectiveness in promoting the separation of valuable minerals from gangue.

Key Features:

• High Efficiency: PAX showcases strong collecting properties, significantly enhancing the selective flotation of sulfide minerals.
• Selective Flocculation: Enables selective flocculation, facilitating the separation of minerals based on their hydrophobic characteristics.
• Versatility: Compatible with a variety of ore types and can be used in conjunction with other flotation reagents for tailored separation processes.
• Environmental Consideration: PAX is biodegradable and less toxic compared to many other xanthate collectors, offering an environmentally friendly option.

Applications:

• Froth Flotation: Primarily used in the flotation of non-ferrous and precious metal sulfide ores, including copper, lead, zinc, and others.
• Mineral Processing: Enhances the efficiency of mineral beneficiation processes, leading to higher recovery rates and increased purity of the end product.

Safety Information:

• Handle with care, wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves, safety goggles, and a mask.
• Avoid contact with skin and eyes. If contact occurs, flush immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice if necessary.

Storage Conditions:

• Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
• Keep containers tightly sealed to maintain product integrity and prevent contamination.

Regulatory Information:

• Complies with all relevant industry standards and regulations for use in the mining and mineral processing sectors.

Detailed Photos

Potassium Amyl Xanthate (PAX) stands out as the most selective collector within the xanthate product series. Renowned for its versatility, PAX is a key agent in the preferential flotation of easily floating or complex nonferrous gold sulfide ores. Its applications extend to being used in conjunction with vulcanizing agents for the flotation of copper and lead oxide ores. Beyond flotation, PAX serves as a crucial hydrometallurgical precipitator, playing a significant role in the purification of zinc electrolytes. Additionally, its properties make it an effective accelerator for rubber vulcanization, demonstrating its multifaceted utility in various industrial processes.
