Key Features
Provides highly selective suppression of chalcopyrite and pyrite through durable adsorbed films that obstruct collector attachment
Effectively restrains copper and sulfur impurities in molybdenum flotation, improving concentrate quality
Performs consistently in neutral to weakly alkaline pulp systems with minimal temperature sensitivity
Excellent dispersibility enables fast blending and even distribution in slurry
Fully compatible with standard collectors and frothers without impairing target mineral recovery
Reduces reagent usage in clay-rich ores by modulating slurry viscosity
Advantages
Powerful selective inhibition enhances molybdenum concentrate grade and resolves separation difficulties in high-impurity ores
Effective across broad pH range (neutral to weakly alkaline) with strong environmental adaptability
Simplifies operational control while maintaining high efficiency in diverse processing conditions
Cost-effective solution for industrial applications in polymetallic ore separation
As a key flotation modifier, 5115 Depressant is extensively applied in separating polymetallic ores such as copper-molybdenum and molybdenum-sulfur ores containing chalcopyrite and pyrite. It significantly enhances target mineral recovery while reducing the number of cleaning steps required in the separation circuit.
