Product Description
Ammonium Dibutyl Dithiophosphate is a dithiophosphate flotation collector widely used in the beneficiation of non-ferrous metal sulfide ores.
It provides good collecting performance for selected copper, lead, zinc and other sulfide minerals and can be used as an alternative or complementary collector to xanthates depending on ore characteristics and flotation conditions.
Hanhai Chemical supplies Ammonium Dibutyl Dithiophosphate for mineral processing and flotation applications. Product selection and flotation reagent solutions can be discussed according to the customer’s ore type, target mineral and flotation process.
COA and SDS are available upon request.

Applications
Copper Sulfide Ore Flotation
Ammonium Dibutyl Dithiophosphate can be used as a collector in the flotation of selected copper sulfide minerals.
Depending on ore characteristics, it may be used alone or together with other collectors to achieve the required flotation performance.
Lead Sulfide Ore Flotation
It can provide collecting activity for selected lead-bearing sulfide minerals and is used in lead flotation circuits under suitable operating conditions.
The reagent scheme should be selected according to mineral composition, liberation characteristics and flotation conditions.
Zinc & Polymetallic Sulfide Ores
Ammonium Dibutyl Dithiophosphate can also be considered in certain zinc-containing and polymetallic sulfide ore flotation systems.
For complex ores containing several valuable minerals, collector selection should take into account the required selectivity and separation sequence.
Gold-Bearing Sulfide Ores
In selected gold-bearing sulfide flotation processes, dithiophosphate collectors may be used to assist the recovery of sulfide-associated valuable minerals.
Actual performance depends strongly on ore mineralogy and the overall reagent system.
Flotation Performance
The performance of a flotation collector cannot be determined by product name alone.
For Ammonium Dibutyl Dithiophosphate, important factors include:
- Ore mineral composition
- Target valuable mineral
- Sulfide mineral content
- Feed particle size
- Pulp pH
- Water chemistry
- Existing collector system
- Frother and modifier selection
- Required concentrate grade and recovery
For new ore applications, laboratory flotation testing is recommended before determining the final reagent dosage and collector combination.
Product Advantages
Good Collecting Performance
Provides useful collecting activity for selected non-ferrous sulfide minerals under suitable flotation conditions.
Suitable for Multiple Sulfide Ores

FAQ
What is Ammonium Dibutyl Dithiophosphate used for?
It is primarily used as a collector in mineral flotation, particularly in selected non-ferrous sulfide ore flotation systems.
Which minerals can it be used for?
It can be considered for selected copper, lead, zinc, polymetallic and sulfide-associated valuable mineral flotation. Actual suitability depends on ore mineralogy and flotation conditions.
Is it the same as xanthate?
No. Dithiophosphates and xanthates are different classes of flotation collectors and can show different collecting strength and selectivity depending on the mineral system.
In some flotation circuits they may also be used together.
How do I determine the correct dosage?
There is no universal dosage suitable for every mine.
Dosage should be optimized according to the ore mineralogy, pulp pH, particle size, other flotation reagents and required recovery/concentrate grade. Laboratory flotation tests are recommended when introducing a new collector.
Can you recommend a collector according to our ore?
Yes. Please provide information about your ore type, target mineral, current collector, current dosage and flotation performance. This information helps us evaluate a suitable collector option.
Can you provide COA and SDS?
Yes. COA and SDS can be provided according to the supplied product specification.
