Abstract
A family of amine mining collectors that uses alkoxylates allows for the easy adjustment of solubility and molecular weight useful because anionic and cationic mineral collectors require such varying degrees of solubility and molecular weight. The family of the present invention allows for the optimization of both parameters and an increase in collector efficiency.
Claims5
The mining collector and its relevant salts of the following structure:
- where R is chosen from alkyl, linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, cyclic or acyclic from 1 to 22 carbons, n is a positive integer, R1 is chosen from —CH3, —CH2CH3, R2 is chosen from alkyl, linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, cyclic or acyclic from 0 to 22 carbons, and when R2 is C0 then the mining collector and its relevant salts has the following structure:
