Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of organic synthesis and mineral flotation, and more particularly, to a focused p-phenylenediamine polyphosphate and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an important inorganic compound, polyphosphate has a wide application prospect in the field of mineral processing. Early studies found that polyphosphate has an inhibitory effect on some minerals such as calcite, apatite and dolomite. Later studies showed that the inhibitory effect of polyphosphate on minerals is mainly achieved by complexing the metal ions on the surface of the minerals, rather than directly adsorbing on the surface of the minerals. The application of polyphosphate in mineral processing mainly includes: as an inhibitor, a slime dispersant, a mineral suspension stabilizer, a precipitant of some metal ions and a water softener, etc. Among them, the application research of polyphosphate as an inhibitor is more extensive. Studies have found that polyphosphate has a good inhibitory effect on calcium-containing minerals such as calcite and fluorite, and can be used for preferential flotation of scheelite. In addition, polyphosphate can also be used to control the accidental activation or deactivation in the process of mineral processing.

[0003] However, there are still some deficiencies in the current application research of polyphosphate in mineral processing. The research on the interaction mechanism between polyphosphate and the surface of different minerals is not deep enough, and the selective inhibitory effect of polyphosphate in complex mineral systems needs to be further explored. At the same time, the stability and degradation characteristics of polyphosphate in the process of mineral processing need to be strengthened, and the synergistic mechanism with other mineral processing agents is not clear. These problems limit the further application and development of polyphosphate in mineral processing. SUMMARY

[0004] Based on the above technical problems existing in the prior art, the present application provides a focused p-phenylenediamine polyphosphate, which can exhibit excellent performance in the process of copper-lead separation and tungsten ore dressing.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme of the present application is as follows:

[0009] The present application also provides a preparation method of the above-mentioned focused p-phenylenediamine polyphosphate, and the reaction formula of the method is as follows:

[0010]

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] The p-phenylenediamine polyphosphate provided by this invention exhibits excellent performance in the beneficiation of lead and tungsten ores. Specifically, for lead ore, this compound effectively inhibits the flotation of galena, particularly in the pH range of 7-10. In tungsten ore beneficiation, it can be used as a modifier for the preferential flotation of scheelite by selectively complexing and dissolving calcium ions on the surface of calcium-containing minerals such as calcite and fluorite, thereby reducing the interaction between these minerals and the collector and achieving preferential flotation of scheelite. The novel modified polyphosphate provided by this invention is expected to improve the separation efficiency of copper-lead and tungsten ore beneficiation, providing a new solution to long-standing technical challenges in the beneficiation of these minerals.

[0021] The preparation method of this invention uses phosphoric acid, polyphosphate, and p-phenylenediamine and its derivatives as reactants.

This invention uses common and economical reagents as raw materials and achieves efficient synthesis of the target compound by optimizing reaction conditions.

[0022] Compared with traditional methods, the preparation method of this invention exhibits significant advantages in several aspects: First, the method greatly simplifies the synthesis process, concentrating multi-step reactions into a single-step operation, thus greatly improving synthesis efficiency; second, the reaction conditions are mild, requiring no special equipment or harsh environments, enhancing the practicality and scalability of the method. Furthermore, it demonstrates excellent performance in terms of atom economy, substrate applicability, and product purity, fully embodying the concept of green chemistry.

[0023] The method of this invention overcomes the limitations of existing technologies, such as the need for pre-preparation of substrates and the use of special catalysts, providing new possibilities for the industrial production of p-phenylenediamine polyphosphate. This not only helps reduce production costs but also opens up new avenues for the application of related compounds in multiple fields. Detailed Implementation
