The most widely used flotation frother worldwide, valued for consistent, fine, stable froth across a wide dosage range.
MIBC (4-methyl-2-pentanol) is a weakly ionising alcohol-type frother. Formula C6H14O, CAS 108-11-2. It lowers surface tension to generate a stable froth without acting as a collector itself.
Dosed alongside a xanthate collector in copper, gold, zinc and polymetallic flotation circuits to control bubble size and froth stability.
Store in sealed containers away from heat and open flame.
Flammable liquid; moderate irritant. SDS supplied with every shipment. Full Safety Data Sheet (SDS) supplied with every consignment.
