Discover Aure Chemical's Premium Sodium Diisobutyl Dithiophosphinate Supply
Sodium Diisobutyl Dithiophosphinate (Na-DIBDTP) (CAS 13360-78-6) is a critical reagent in the mineral processing industry, functioning as a highly effective and selective flotation collector. It is typically supplied as a white to pale yellow free-flowing powder or granular solid with a faint sulfidic odor. Belonging to the class of dithiophosphinates, Na-DIBDTP is prized for its ability to adsorb strongly and selectively onto the surface of sulfide minerals (like chalcopyrite and sphalerite). This strong, non-reversible adsorption promotes high flotation efficiency, resulting in excellent metal recovery and superior concentrate grades compared to traditional xanthate or dithiophosphate collectors.

Application Overview
Na-DIBDTP is used primarily in the mineral flotation process, where its selectivity and strength are paramount for optimizing separation economics:
Copper Flotation: Highly effective in the flotation of copper sulfide minerals (e.g., chalcopyrite, bornite), often resulting in higher recovery rates and better selectivity against iron sulfides (pyrite).
Polymetallic Ores: Essential for separating complex polymetallic ores containing mixtures of copper, zinc, nickel, and iron. Its selectivity allows for differential flotation to produce clean, separate concentrates.
Nickel and Cobalt Sulfides: Provides excellent collecting power for nickel and cobalt sulfide minerals, often used in conjunction with other collectors to maximize recovery in primary and secondary circuits.
Precious Metal Recovery: Used in the flotation of gold and silver associated with sulfide matrices, improving overall precious metal recovery into the concentrate stream.
Improved Kinetics: Offers faster flotation kinetics than many traditional collectors, which can increase mill throughput and reduce processing time.
Why Choose Aure Chemical for Sodium Diisobutyl Dithiophosphinate?
Aure Chemical offers Na-DIBDTP (CAS 13360-78-6) with specialized quality assurance protocols focused on maximizing its industrial performance, safety, and supply consistency.
