Resumen en inglés | Due to its low cost compared with hydroxamate and sulphonate, sodium oleate is em-ployed in direct flotation of low-grade or waste iron ore. However, depressants are being studied. This work shows the influence of the depressant sodium silicate on hematite and quartz flotation with sodium oleate as a collector. Microflotation tests were per-formed in Hallimond tube at pH values 7 and 9, and the zeta potentials of both minerals were determined in the absence and presence of sodium silicate. The sodium silicate was a more efficient depressant for quartz than for hematite, and a selective separation between the two minerals is possible for low reagent concentrations. The zeta potentials of both minerals were shifted to lower values due the specific adsorp-tion of anionic species of sodium silicate onto their surfaces |
