摘要
The effect of sodium hexametaphosphate（SHMP） on the separation of serpentine from pyrite and its mechanism were studied systematically through flotation tests,sedimentation tests,surface dissolution,ζ potential tests,adsorption measurements,and infrared spectroscopic analyses.The results show that the SHMP could significantly reduce the adverse effect of serpentine on the flotation of pyrite and make the mixed sample of pyrite and serpentine more disperse in the alkaline condition,thus improve the adsorption of xanthate on pyrite.The action mechanism of the SHMP is that it lowers the pH value at the isoelectric point of serpentine and enhances the negative charge through the dissolution of magnesium from the surface of serpentine and adsorbing on the surface of serpentine.It changes the total interaction energy between serpentine and pyrite from gravitational potential energy to repulse potential energy,according to the calculation of the EDLVO theory.
通过浮选试验、沉降试验、表面溶解、ζ电位测试、吸附量测试和红外光谱测试研究六偏磷酸钠在蛇纹石与黄铁矿分离中的作用与机理。结果表明,六偏磷酸钠可以显著减弱蛇纹石对黄铁矿浮选的不利影响,它能在碱性条件下使蛇纹石与黄铁矿分散,从而提高黄药在黄铁矿表面的吸附量。六偏磷酸钠的作用是通过溶出蛇纹石表面的镁,并在其表面吸附,降低蛇纹石表面等电点pH,增强负电性。DLVO理论计算表明,六偏磷酸钠能使蛇纹石与黄铁矿间的总相互作用能由引力位能转变为斥力位能。
