A Study on the Electric Surface Potential and Hydrophobicity of Quartz Particles in the Presence of Hexyl Amine Cellulose Nanocrystals and Their Correlation to Flotation

Abstract: In this work, the study of hexyl amine cellulose nanocrystal (HAC) as a renewable and environmentally-friendly reagent for the flotation of quartz (QRZ) is expanded with a focus on the changes of electrical states at the solid-liquid interface, the range of solid-gas interactions, and their impact on flotation operations under a turbulent regime. Furthermore, particle-bubble attachment probabilities were measured with the recently engineered automated contact timer apparatus (ACTA), a versatile technique used … Show more

“…60%, even recoveries higher than 85% were obtained for a concentration of 50 g/t using a similar HAC sample. 16 This indicates the first advantage on the use of nanocellulose particles as a collector.…”

“…For the purposes of this work, a size fraction for ACTA and flotation experiments was prepared as reported earlier. 16 In short, about 100 g of quartz was ground for 10 s in a ring mill (Fritsch PULVERISETTE, planetary micro mill) made of tungsten carbide. It is expected that no contamination of samples results from grinding.…”
