Potassium butyl xanthate yog flotation reagent nrog muaj zog sau muaj peev xwm, uas yog dav siv nyob rau hauv sib xyaw flotation ntawm ntau yam uas tsis yog-ferrous hlau sulfide ores.Cov khoom no yog tshwj xeeb tshaj yog haum rau flotation ntawm chalcopyrite, sphalerite, pyrite, thiab lwm yam. Nyob rau hauv tej yam kev mob, nws yuav siv tau rau preferentially flotation tooj liab sulfide los ntawm sulfide hlau ore, los yog xaiv sphalerite activated los ntawm tooj liab sulfate rau flotation.
