Dithiophosphate 25 (DTP 25) – Versatile Sulfide Collector & Auxiliary Frother for Flotation
We supply industry-standard Dithiophosphate 25 (DTP 25), a proven and cost-effective flotation reagent. This dithiophosphoric acid derivative acts as both a collector for sulfide minerals and a mild auxiliary frother. Consequently, mining operations actively use it for the flotation of copper, lead, zinc, and gold-bearing sulfide ores, often in combination with primary collectors like xanthates. Moreover, its dual functionality can help stabilize froth and improve the recovery of coarse or weakly floating mineral particles.
Core Applications for DTP 25 in Mineral Processing
This reliable reagent serves as a versatile workhorse in base and precious metal flotation circuits. Its applications enhance overall circuit performance and robustness.
First, the base metal mining industry utilizes Dithiophosphate 25 as a secondary or co-collector in bulk and differential sulfide flotation. It is particularly effective for floating copper and lead sulfides and can improve the recovery of native gold and silver. Therefore, concentrator plants incorporate it to boost overall metal recovery, especially in circuits treating ores with variable mineralogy.
Second, its inherent frothing properties make it valuable for stabilizing the froth phase and assisting in the flotation of coarse or middling particles that might otherwise sink. Furthermore, it is often favored for its selectivity and lower toxicity profile compared to some other collectors, making it a component in optimized reagent schemes.
