Description

Potassium ethylxanthate is an organosulfur compound with the chemical formula CH₃CH₂OCS₂K. It appears as a pale yellow powder and is primarily used in the Mining Industry for the separation of ores. This compound is a potassium salt of ethyl xanthic acid and is known for its role as a flotation agent in the extraction of metals such as copper, nickel, and silver.

Application

  • Potassium ethyl xanthate, as the mining reagent, is the weakest xanthate , but PEX is very selective given the correct chemical conditions.

  • PEX is best for the recovery of sulfides that are relatively hydrophobic like galena.

  • Potassium ethyl xanthate (PEX)can recover all sulfides but because of its weak nature, the flotation kinetics are very slow.
