Flotation Products

Our range includes:

DEHSCOFIX® FH57

Typically used in nickel, gold and copper extraction operations and coal production, this strong oil-soluble frother is a good alternative to polyglycol and polyglycol ether type frothers.

DEHSCOFIX® FH57 can overcome foam resistance and stability issues. Offers potential dose savings compared to other manufacturers. Although often used alone because of its strength, it can be combined with other foamers to achieve specific foam and performance characteristics.

DEHSCOFIX® FW55

DEHSCOFIX® FW55 is compatible with the metallurgical performance of other alternative strong alcohol / polyglycol ether blends while offering potential savings in dosing costs.

DEHSCOFIX® FW53

This water-soluble frother is typically used in nickel, gold,
copper, iron sulphide metal and other industrial extraction
operations.

DEHSCOFIX® FW53 can improve the recovery of coarse-size fraction particles even in cells (compartments) with the highest disposable content. Compared to other higher strength blends, it offers the possibility of reducing dosing costs.

DEHSCOFIX® FW34

A medium strength water-soluble frother (due to molecular weight) it is ideal for applications requiring intermediate froth stability and good froth depth control. Typically used in nickel, copper and iron sulphide metal extraction.

DEHSCOFIX® FW34 is a good alternative to medium strength triethoxy butane (TEB) alcohol foamers that contain small amounts of glycol ethers or polypropylene glycols. It demonstrates a balance between stability and selectivity and can be used for coarse, fine, or intermediate particle size distributions.

DEHSCOFIX® FW31

Suitable for a wide range of flotation applications, this product is typically used for nickel, gold and copper extraction. It can also be used in coal production as well as other industrial processes.

DEHSCOFIX® FW31 is an established industrial alternative to medium strength, medium molecular weight, glycol ether / propylene glycol based foamers. It is ideal when a balance of selectivity and strength is required.

DEHSCOFIX® FH30

Suitable for flotation applications where both selectivity and froth strength are required. Typical uses cover nickel, gold and copper extracation. It can also be used in coal production as well as general industrial applications.

DEHSCOFIX® FH30 is an effective alternative to medium strength glycol ether / propylene glycol based foamers and stronger alcohol-based foamers. This oil soluble foamer that offers good foam depth control and efficient recovery of coarse-sized particles.

DEHSCOFIX® FH29

This is a selective frother for base metal flotation that delivers improved flotation kinetics and intermediate froth strengths. It is typically used as an alternative to lower molecular weight alcohol/ester/propylene glycol based frother blends for gold and copper extraction.

DEHSCOFIX® FH29 has a low to moderate hydrophobicity that produces mobile foams with good drainage and intermediate stability. Results in less water recovery and improved gangue rejection. Improves flotation kinetics and intermediate foam resistance.

DEHSCOFIX® FH23

Dehscofix® FW23 is a water-soluble foaming agent that produces mobile foams with good drainage and intermediate stability. Improves flotation kinetics and intermediate resistance.

DEHSCOFIX®FH15

DEHSCOFIX® FH15 is a selective foamer for precious metal and base metal flotation. It is used as an alternative to methyl isobutyl carbinol (MIBC) and low molecular weight alcohol based foams. Typical applications are gold, lead-zinc, and copper mining. It is also used in the production of charcoal.

DEHSCOFIX® FH15 produces a dry, mobile foam with low to moderate stability. Performance is comparable to low molecular weight, alcohol-based. Provides good control of the float circuit.

DEHSCOFIX^® DK Products

Our DEHSCOFIX® DK range of non-ionic, anionic and cationic dispersants and depressants are used to facilitate the rejection of clays, silicates, carbonates, asbestos and carbon typically found in sulfide minerals.

These low and intermediate molecular weight polymers improve process efficiency by increasing the degree and recovery of the flotation concentrate. They have been specifically produced to reduce iron sulfides, maintain a low viscosity, disperse lime silt, talc, disperse clays, hydrophobic gangue and silicates. Polymers can also be used as a suspension viscosity modifier.
