New insights into the promotion mechanism of (NH<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> in sulfidization flotation: a combined experimental and computational study

Abstract: Ammonium sulfate ((NH4)2SO4) exhibits promoting effects in malachite sulfidization flotation. However, the promotion mechanism remains poorly understood. In this study, microflotation tests, zeta-potential measurements, scanning electron microscopy coupled with energydispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and materials studio simulation (DFT) were used to investigated the promotion mechanism of (NH4)2SO4. Micro-flotation test demonstrates that t… Show more

“…The recovery then remained nearly constant with the increase of BX. After sulfidization, the malachite surface could easily interact with xanthate, which improved the hydrophobicity of the mineral surface [27]. This result indicated that the sulfidization could promote the flotation of malachite.…”

“…Furthermore, Chen et al [69] reported the promotional effect of ammonium sulphate ((NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 ) as a modifier in malachite sulfidization flotation with butyl xanthate (BX) as a collector. The DFT calculation results indicated that the adsorption energy of HS − produced by the ionization of sodium sulfide (Na 2 S, a sulfidizing reagent) in water was reduced by the addition of (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 , which demonstrated that (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 could improve the adsorption stability of HS − on a malachite surface.…”
