Product Typical Uses

Alcohol-based frother chemicals are used by mining operators and metallurgists to enhance the froth flotation process, which is essential for separating valuable minerals from ore. Frothers stabilise air bubbles in the flotation slurry, promoting the formation of a stable froth layer that facilitates the removal of hydrophobic particles, thereby improving mineral recovery and process efficiency.
