Chemical appearance
Isopropyl Ethyl Thionocarbamate or O – Isopropyl – N – Ethyl Thionocarbamate has a type of dark brown or amber colour and comes in a liquid form with an oily consistency. It is partially dissolvable in water and has a density of 990 – 1004 kg/m3.
Chemical application and strength
Isopropyl Ethyl Thionocarbamate or O – Isopropyl – N – Ethyl Thionocarbamate is another strong type of collector which has characteristics of having strong collection in the flotation process of various nonferrous metallic sulfides.
Partially soluble in water but is highly soluble in benzene, petroleum ether, alcohol, ethyl ether, and many more.
Has weak collective power with regards to pyrites, but is very selective in the flotation process of various sulfide ores.
It should be placed in an environment away from exposure to water and extreme heat from fire and sunlight. It should always be placed upright and never upside down
Compared to xanthates it has a better frothing ability.
CAS Number:141 – 98 – 0
HS Code:293020
Chemical appearance
Dithiophosphate 25s or Hydrogen Phosphorodithioate has an appearance of a deep brown or almost black liquid. Some may classify it as a vandyck brown oily liquid and it has a density of 1.17 – 1.20. It has a PH value of 10 – 13 and a mineral substances percentage of 46 – 49.
Chemical application and strength
Dithiophosphate 25s or Hydrogen Phosphorodithioate is known to be a good flotation collector of copper, silver sulfide, zinc sulfide (activated), and lead ores. It can somewhat be dissolved in water. Also, it can be directly poured into ball mills and surge tanks.
Hydrogen Phosphorodithioate is used mainly in the separation flotation process of ores like lead and zinc.
Because of its properties it should not be subjected to intense heat like fire or extreme sunlight. Proper packaging must be observed.
It is weak in collecting sulfide minerals and pyrite when in alkaline medium. It also is selective in collecting ores.
