Recently, Qingdao Ruchang Mining Reagents Co., Ltd. has successfully completed the shipment of a full container of Sodium Isobutyl Xanthate (SIBX) products, ready for export to the Southeast Asian market in Vietnam. The company maintained stable production throughout the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holidays, with staff working overtime to ensure on-time delivery for customers. The first full-container order post-holiday was shipped on schedule, with stable capacity output.
Advantages of Sodium Isobutyl Xanthate (SIBX)
Sodium Isobutyl Xanthate (SIBX) is an important variety in the xanthate series, classified as a high-efficiency sulfide ore collector, specifically designed for the flotation of copper, lead-zinc, and other non-ferrous metal sulfide ores. Compared with Sodium Butyl Xanthate (SBX), SIBX offers stronger selectivity; compared with Sodium Ethyl Xanthate (SEX), it provides stronger collecting power. It is a well-balanced intermediate variety in the xanthate family, between collecting power and selectivity. Qingdao Ruchang's SIBX has the following outstanding characteristics:
- Strong Collecting Power and Good Selectivity — Excellent collection of copper sulfide ores (chalcopyrite, chalcocite, covellite) and lead-zinc ores (galena, sphalerite), with high selectivity against pyrite and gangue minerals
- Good Stability and Easy Storage — High product purity, low impurity content, good stability at room temperature, low transport loss
- Wide Applicability — Suitable for flotation of copper, lead-zinc, copper-zinc, and other polymetallic sulfide ores, synergistic with black drugs and frothers
- Environmentally Safe — Manufacturing complies with international environmental standards, complete MSDS/SDS, compliant with maritime dangerous goods transport regulations
Product Specifications and Technical Parameters
Qingdao Ruchang's SIBX strictly complies with industry standards. The main technical parameters are as follows:
- Appearance — Light yellow to yellow powder or granular solid
- Main Component Content — Sodium isobutyl xanthate ≥ 90% (customizable based on customer process)
- Free Alkali Content — ≤ 0.5%
- Moisture — ≤ 5%
- Packaging Specifications — Iron drum: net weight 110-180 kg/drum; Plywood box with big bag: net weight 500, 800-900 kg/box; Woven bag with inner plastic liner: net weight 25-50 kg/bag
Full Container Loading and Maritime Transport Assurance
