Ammonium Dibutyl Dithiophosphate / Dithiophosphate BA 91%

Dithiophosphate IBS or Sodium Diisobutyl Dithiophosphate is a very good collector of nickel, zinc minerals (activated), and copper ores. It is also used within gold harvesting plants because of its ability to increase harvest of precious metals.

Dicalcium Phosphate (DCP) appears as white crystalline powder or granules. DCP is colorless and does not have any odor. In addition, it is neutral and shows high solubility in diluted acid and ammonium nitrate. DCP also shows slight solubility in water and is low in terms of hygroscopic abilities. DCP is not soluble in alcohol. The crystal water in Dicalcium Phosphate dihydrate (CaHPO4. 2H2O) starts to dissipate when DCP is heated at 90 0C. When heated above 400 0C, DCP turns into calcium pyrophosphate.

The compound is usually a white powder. It is odourless but irritating to the skin and eyes. The mix is slightly soluble in water and does not burn when exposed to naked flames. It may also take as light yellow colour and is soluble in dilute nitric acid and hydrochloric acid.

Amino Dithiophosphate or Thiophosphoric Acid containing nitrogen is a very good collector agent of various non-ferrous sulfide minerals like lead, silver, copper, and zinc (activated) sulfide ores. It can be used in the activation process of pyrite flotation.
