Chalcopyrite–quartz mineral surfaces: controlled wetting and spreading by xanthate-tallow diamine emulsions

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Novel emulsions formulated with water-soluble xanthates combined with oil-soluble tallow diamine have been developed that are able to wet chalcopyrite surfaces then spread to quartz when triggered by a drop in pH.
