Sodium Isoamyl Xanthate (SIAX)
CAS Number: 7009-95-2
Sodium Isoamyl Xanthate (SIAX) is a medium-chain xanthate collector offering a balance between collecting power and selectivity for sulfide mineral flotation. It is particularly effective for copper, lead, and zinc ores where moderate selectivity over pyrite is required. SIAX is often used in combination with shorter-chain xanthates to optimize collector performance across variable ore grades.
