IPETC Enables Higher-grade Ore Recovery For Your Mine Under Alkaline Conditions

IPETC enables higher-grade ore recovery for your mine under alkaline conditions.

IPETC is a copper-selective collector primarily used in the flotation of non-ferrous sulfide ores. Its selective affinity for copper minerals makes it a reliable reagent for complex polymetallic separation circuits.

IPETC exhibits strong collecting power for copper minerals such as chalcopyrite, while showing weaker affinity for pyrite. Consequently, it is frequently employed in copper-sulfur separation, enabling the attainment of high-grade copper concentrates under alkaline conditions.

Research indicates that IPETC effectively imparts hydrophobicity to both chalcopyrite and galena. When used in conjunction with modifiers such as hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), it facilitates the flotation separation of copper-lead sulfide ores.

Studies have also explored its use in the selective recovery of elemental sulfur from high-sulfur residues, demonstrating superior selectivity and collecting power compared to traditional reagents like ethyl xanthate. Furthermore, while IPETC is effective as a collector for pentlandite (nickel-bearing sulfide), its use alone can lead to excessive froth entrainment, which may negatively impact concentrate grade; therefore, it is often more effective when combined with xanthates.

Beijing Y&X Technology Co., Ltd. was established in August 2014. Y&X belongs to a family mining group that has been engaged in the mining industry for 30 years. The group owns iron, copper, phosphorus, molybdenum, gold, lead, zinc and other mines, and holds qualifications for geological exploration, mine dressing design, and general contracting of mine projects.

In 2008, we invested in a specialized mining and chemical processing plant with a serial production capacity of 50,000 tons/year, a serial dithiophosphate production capacity of 20,000 tons/year, an IPETC production capacity of 20,000 tons/year, and other kinds of mineral processing chemicals. The factory is located on the Jiaozhou Peninsula, near Qingdao port, with convenient transportation.

Beijing Y&X Technology Co., Ltd. was founded in response to the country's going-global strategy and the group's overseas development layout. Y&X Company is located in Beijing, the capital, and serves as an overseas promotion and sales center for the chemical plants and design institutes, dedicated to serving overseas customers.
