Glycol Frothers

A wide range of frothers and promoters capable of floating fine, course, low-or-high rank coal in a broad spectrum of plant conditions.
Shur Coal™ - 162	Frother & Promoter	Shur-CoalÒ 162 frother is a patented glycol ether alcohol-type frother. Although this frother is only slightly soluble in water, it does have a high degree of dispersion in water. Coal flotation for use in both column cells as well as conventional mechanical flotation cells more...
Shur Coal™ - 168	Frother & Promoter	Shur-CoalÒ 168 is a low odor blended frother useful in recovery of copper and precious metal flotation. Shur-CoalÒ 168 is specially effective in increasing recovery of coarse particles more...

Alcohol Frothers

Cost effective frothers that improve the froth created by amine collectors.
O'B Froth™ - 503	Frother & Promoter	O'B FrothÔ 503, a blend of aliphatic alcohol's (C6 - C9), is a flotation reagent designed to be a low-cost frother for use with ores that are generally considered to be easy to float more...
O'B Froth™ - 507 O'B Froth™ - 509	Frother & Promoter	O'B FrothÔ 507, an Aliphatic alcohol's (C6 - C9), is a flotation reagent designed to be a low-cost frother for use with ores that are generally considered to be easy to float more...
Shur Coal™ - 173	Frother & Promoter	Shur-CoalÒ 173 flotation reagent is a blend of aliphatic alcohols that works effectively on coals with medium-to-high natural flotability. It can be added with hydrocarbon oils such as fuel oil or kerosene or added by itself for coals that are very easy to float more...

Amines

Broad product range permits selection of the right collector for your flotation conditions (feedsize, recover/selectivity levels etc.) In general for fine silica O'B Float F-398™ is preferred; O'B Float F-370™ is effective on coarse silica; diamine products are recommended where selectivity is desired.
O'B Float™ - F-370	Silica Collector Effective on Course Silica	O'B FloatÔ F-370 is a branched chain primary ether amine. O'B FloatÔ F-370 is used in the flotation of silica from iron ore and phosphate rock. It is especially suited for the flotation of fine silica from hematite ores more...
O'B Float™ - F-382	Fine Silica Collector	O'B FloatÔ F-382 is a branched chain ether diamine acetate salt. O'B FloatÔ F-382 is used in the flotation of silica from iron ore and selected non ferrous minerals. It is especially suited for the flotation of fine silica from taconite iron ores more...
O'B Float™ - F-383	Fine Silica Collector	O'B FloatÔ F-383 is a branched chain ether diamine acetate salt. O'B FloatÔ F-383 is used in the flotation of silica from iron ore and selected non ferrous minerals. It is especially suited for the flotation of fine silica from taconite iron ores more...
O'B Float™ - F-398	Fine Silica Collector	O'B FloatÔ F-398 is a linear primary ether amine. O'B FloatÔ F-398 is used in the flotation of silica from iron ore and selected non ferrous minerals. It is especially suited for the flotation of fine silica from hematite ores more...

Dewatering Aids

Lowers residual moisture in filter and centrifuge clean-coal products, reducing costly moisture penalties.
Doss 70	Dewatering Aids	DOSS 70 is an effective multifunctional chemical treatment for use in the reduction of surface moisture (drying aid) on washed coal. Field tests show that from a 10% to 40% reduction in surface moisture is possible on selected coals. Effective in lowering final concentration moisture in filtration applications, especially for flux pellets more...
KE-2	Dewatering Aids	KE-2 is a highly active blend of surface active agents which can be converted to foam instantly when mixed with pressured air. As a foam it will wet materials where there are hydrophobic charges present. As a completely water soluble product KE-2 is easy to feed with air or water in any dust control application. And has been used with a variety of foam generating systems. Can be used with water to wet any type hydrophobic material more...
