Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a collector for reverse flotation of collophanite under acidic conditions and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of collophanite flotation. Background Art

[0002] The reverse flotation of collophanite is carried out in acidic pulp. Under acidic conditions, fatty acid collectors such as oleic acid have weak dissociation and low solubility, resulting in a large number of fatty acid molecules in the pulp. Some of these fatty acid molecules can be co-adsorbed with fatty acid ions on the dolomite surface, while the other part is mainly free in the pulp, resulting in a decrease in the flotation efficiency of the reagent. In addition, the solubility of fatty acids in acidic pulp is low, so that part of the reagent exists in the form of fatty acid droplets during the flotation process. These fatty acid droplets can only slowly dissociate into fatty acid ions as the reagent is consumed during the flotation process, which also leads to a decrease in flotation efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a collector for reverse flotation of collophanite under acidic conditions, the structural formula of the collector is shown in Formula I:

[0004]

[0005] Wherein, R1 is a straight-chain alkyl group having 15 carbon atoms or a straight-chain alkyl group having 17 carbon atoms.

[0006] Preferably, the preparation method of the collector comprises the following steps:

[0007] (1) 3-Amino-5-phosphonobenzoic acid is added to carbon tetrachloride and stirred until completely dissolved, followed by adding stearic acid and palmitic acid to obtain a mixed fatty acid.

[0008] (2) Platinum plates are added to the mixed fatty acids for catalytic reaction, and carbon tetrachloride is removed by distillation after the reaction is completed to obtain a collector for reverse flotation of collophanite under acidic conditions.

[0009] Preferably, the mass percentages of 3-amino-5-phosphonobenzoic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid in step (1) are 20% to 40%, 10% to 60% and 20% to 50% respectively, wherein the total mass percentage of 3-amino-5-phosphonobenzoic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid is 100%.

[0010] Preferably, the mass ratio of the total mass of 3-amino-5-phosphonobenzoic acid, stearic acid and palmitic acid to the mass of the platinum plate is 10:(1-5).

[0011] Preferably, the temperature of the catalytic reaction in step (2) is 20 to 60° C., and the reaction time is 0.5 to 1 hour.

[0012] Preferably, the structural formula of the 3-amino-5-phosphonobenzoic acid is as shown in Formula II:

[0013]

[0014] Preferably, the collector for reverse flotation of collophanite under acidic conditions is used in an acidic slurry with a pH of 4 to 5.

[0015] The synthesis process of the collector for reverse flotation of collophanite under acidic conditions is as follows, wherein R1 is a 15-carbon straight-chain alkyl or a 17-carbon straight-chain alkyl:

[0016]

[0017] Compared with conventional agents, the bifunctional collector provided by the present invention has the characteristics of high solubility and strong hydrophilicity. Moreover, the agent contains one phosphonic acid group and one carboxyl group, both of which can bond with calcium ions and magnesium ions on the surface of dolomite and calcite to form multi-group adsorption, and has a strong ability to capture calcium carbonate.

[0018] Technical effects of the present invention:

[0019] (1) The collector prepared by the present invention contains two functional groups, namely, a carboxyl group and a phosphonic acid group. Its solubility in acidic conditions is 3 to 4 times that of oleic acid. It has a strong collecting ability for calcite and dolomite, but poor flotation ability for apatite. It can achieve efficient separation of apatite and other calcium carbonates.

[0020] (2) The collector of the present invention can be used in an acidic slurry with a pH of 4 to 5 to obtain a phosphate concentrate with a P2O5 grade of 29.2% to 29.4% and a recovery rate of 88% to 92%.

[0021] (3) The strong hydrophilicity of the reagent enables it to better contact with the mineral surface, enhancing the adsorption efficiency and thus improving the flotation effect.

[0022] (4) Compared with conventional reagents, the collector has a higher solubility in water and can be more evenly dispersed in the flotation system, thereby improving the reagent utilization rate, reducing the dosage, and reducing the production cost. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
