Abstract
In this study, N-OSS combined with DDA was examined as an novel collector. The collecting performances and their synergetic interaction mechanisms were investigated comprehensively. The micro-flotation results illustrated N-OSS/DDA exhibited excellent selectivity on separation without pre-activation. Contact angle tests revealed N-OSS/DDA could selectively enhance the hydrophobicity of spodumene, whereas, they barely affected that of albite. FTIR, SEM-EDS and Zeta potential revealed N-OSS/DDA might co-adsorb on spodumene surface rather than that of albite. XPS analysis and DFT calculations inferred the O1 2p orbitals of -COO- within N-OSS could bond with Al 3s orbitals and the -NH3+ groups of DDA adsorbed onto spodumene surface via hydrogen bonding and electrostatic attraction. Meanwhile, the hydrogen bonding between N-OSS and DDA promoted the co-adsorption on spodumene surface. While N-OSS/DDA weakly adsorbed on albite surface through physical adsorption. N-OSS/DDA exhibited outstanding floatability, which maybe a good substitute for conventional collectors in future.
期刊介绍:
The journal includes papers in the following areas:
– Simple organic liquids and mixtures
– Ionic liquids
– Surfactant solutions (including micelles and vesicles) and liquid interfaces
– Colloidal solutions and nanoparticles
– Thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystals
– Ferrofluids
– Water, aqueous solutions and other hydrogen-bonded liquids
– Lubricants, polymer solutions and melts
– Molten metals and salts
– Phase transitions and critical phenomena in liquids and confined fluids
– Self assembly in complex liquids.– Biomolecules in solution
The emphasis is on the molecular (or microscopic) understanding of particular liquids or liquid systems, especially concerning structure, dynamics and intermolecular forces. The experimental techniques used may include:
– Conventional spectroscopy (mid-IR and far-IR, Raman, NMR, etc.)
– Non-linear optics and time resolved spectroscopy (psec, fsec, asec, ISRS, etc.)
– Light scattering (Rayleigh, Brillouin, PCS, etc.)
– Dielectric relaxation
– X-ray and neutron scattering and diffraction.
Experimental studies, computer simulations (MD or MC) and analytical theory will be considered for publication; papers just reporting experimental results that do not contribute to the understanding of the fundamentals of molecular and ionic liquids will not be accepted. Only papers of a non-routine nature and advancing the field will be considered for publication.
