摘要
The floatability of andalusite and quartz was studied using sodium petroleum sulfonate as collector, being successfully applied in the real ore separation. The collecting performance on minerals was interpreted by means of zeta potential measurement and infrared spectroscopic analysis. The single mineral experiments showed that andalusite got good floatability in acidic pH region while quartz exhibited very poor floatability in the whole pH range. At pH 3, the presence of Fe3+ obviously activated quartz, causing the identical flotation behavior of the two minerals, and calcium lignosulphonate exhibited good selective inhibition to quartz. The real ore test results showed that andalusite concentrate with 53.46% Al2O3 and quartz concentrate with 92.74% SiO2 were obtained. The zeta potential and infrared spectroscopic analysis results indicated that chemical adsorption occurred between sodium petroleum sulfonate and andalusite.
采用石油磺酸钠作捕收剂研究红柱石和石英的可浮性,并成功应用于实际矿石的浮选分离,通过动电位测试以及红外光谱分析解释药剂对矿物的捕收性能。单矿物浮选试验结果表明,在酸性pH条件下红柱石有良好的可浮性,而石英在整个pH范围内可浮性均较差。当pH=3时,Fe3+的存在明显活化了石英,从而导致两种矿物可浮性相似,木质素磺酸钙对石英具有良好的选择性抑制作用。实际矿石分离试验结果显示,最终获得Al2O3品位为53.46%的红柱石精矿和SiO2品位为92.74%的普通石英砂精矿。动电位测试以及红外光谱分析结果表明,石油磺酸钠在红柱石表面发生了化学吸附。
