  • Patent number: 4594151
    Abstract: Process of flotation of minerals, which consists of introducing the flotation collector into the mineral pulp to be treated in the form of a microemulsifiable composition. In general, the collector agents are organic compounds containing sulphur, particularly mercaptans, thioethers or polysulphides, which generally are very slightly soluble in water. This process is particularly suitable for minerals based on oxides and sulphides.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 2, 1985
    Date of Patent: June 10, 1986

  • Patent number: 4521301
    Abstract: Process for the preparation of an organic dithio-acid by reaction of the corresponding dithio-ester and an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydrosulphide in a solvent in the presence of an excess of H.sub.2 S and treatment with a mineral acid. The dithioic acids so obtained can be utilized as collectors for the flotation of minerals.
