Product Description
Depressant D481 is a high-performance flotation reagent developed to effectively suppress carbon-containing minerals, such as fine-grained and cryptocrystalline graphite, in the beneficiation of non-ferrous metal ores. This specialized depressant enhances the grade and recovery rate of valuable concentrates by reducing interference from carbon-based minerals, directing them to the tailings. D481 is particularly beneficial in complex flotation processes where the presence of carbon reduces concentrate quality.
Product Features
- Product Name: Depressant D481
- Appearance: Light yellow powder
- Dosage: 100-500 g per ton of raw material, typically prepared as a 2% concentration solution
- Key Ingredients: Modified starch, Sodium bicarbonate, Carboxymethylcellulose
Usage and Application
Depressant D481 is primarily used in the flotation of non-ferrous metal ores with significant carbon content. By effectively suppressing carbon-containing minerals, such as graphite, D481 prevents these materials from contaminating the concentrate, thereby improving the purity and recovery rates of the target metals. For optimal results, D481 is added to the flotation process as a depressant in a 2% solution form.
Packaging and Storage
- Packaging: Available in 750 kg bags
- Storage: Store in a cool, well-ventilated place, away from strong oxidizers, reducers, and open flames
Safety and Handling
To ensure safe handling of Depressant D481, avoid dust generation and contact with skin and eyes. Personnel handling D481 should wear protective clothing, gloves, and eye protection, adhering strictly to operational guidelines.
Applications
- Carbon Mineral Suppression: D481 is designed for ores with a high content of carbon minerals, especially fine-grained graphite, effectively reducing interference in flotation.
- Enhanced Concentrate Quality: By directing carbon minerals to tailings, D481 helps improve the grade and recovery rate of non-ferrous metal concentrates.
- Optimized for Carbon-Rich Ores: D481 is particularly suited for mineral processing environments where carbon minerals negatively impact concentrate quality.
Summary
Depressant D481 offers an effective solution for managing carbon-containing minerals in the flotation process, ensuring improved concentrate quality and recovery rates. With its robust performance and compatibility with complex flotation setups, D481 is an ideal choice for non-ferrous metal beneficiation where carbon suppression is critical.
