Description
Potassium Amyl Xanthate (PAX) – Powerful Flotation Collector for Sulfide Ores
Potassium Amyl Xanthate (PAX) is a high-activity xanthate flotation reagent used primarily as a collector for the flotation of sulfide minerals, including copper, zinc, lead, and gold ores. With a strong, selective collecting ability, PAX delivers excellent recovery in both rougher and scavenger flotation stages.
This reagent is particularly suitable for oxidized sulfide ores, and where fast, aggressive flotation performance is required. Produced under strict industrial standards, our PAX is available in powder or pellet form, with customizable packaging for safe international transport.
✅ Key Features & Benefits
-
⚡ Strong Collecting Power
Highly effective in capturing sulfide particles — especially chalcopyrite, galena, and sphalerite. -
🎯 Excellent Selectivity
Performs well even in complex or low-grade ores, reducing gangue contamination. -
🧪 Fast Flotation Kinetics
Speeds up mineral separation and boosts ore recovery in industrial flotation processes. -
🌍 Used in Gold, Copper, Zinc, and Lead Mining
Trusted globally across CIL/CIP plants, bulk flotation, and concentrator operations. -
🔒 Stable, Long Shelf Life
Manufactured and packaged to prevent decomposition, even in extended storage.
