7 Claims. (chaos-16s) The present invention relates to mineral concentration. More particularly it relates to a v new class of reagents for selectively separating acidic minerals from ore materials.
This application is in part a continuation of our application Serial No. 326,952, filed March 30, 1940.
In accordance with this invention natural ores or artificial materials comprising mixtures of acidic minerals with other mineral constituents are-subjected to a separation or concentration process in the presence of a promoter of the class comprising the condensation products obtained by reacting one molecular equivalent of a polyalkylene polyamine with two molecular equivalents of a fatty acid, or the salts of such minerals from the other ore constituents. Particularly this invention relates to the use of the diacidyl reaction products of polyalkylene polyamines with fatty acids, fatty acid glycerides or other esters, either as the free base or as the substantially water-soluble salts of such products, as promoters orcollectors for acidic minerals in froth flotation, film flotation, stratification,
agglomeration, tabling, and related mineral sepaacid glycerides or other esters, and salts of these reaction products. These compounds are, in general, surface active and are basic in character.
, A general method of preparing the above reagents comprises heating two molecular equivaproducts, to effect a separation of the acidic v bon radical and Y' 'is a short chain hydrocarbon radical '1 mol. of a polyalkylene is reacted with a mixture comprising 1 mol. of a long chain fatty acid and 1 mol. of a short chain fatty acid.
The products are usually homogeneous viscous pastes which are soluble in aliphatic alcohols or other organic solvents. They combine with acids such as formic, acetic, hydrochloric, and the like to yield salts which are soluble in water.
These diacyl derivatives of the polyalkylene polyamines are those most probably represented by the following generalformula:
YCO-NH-AOCY' wherein A represents the group or a plurality of such groups serially arranged, R. and R1 represent hydrogen or alkyl radicals, Y represents an aliphatic hydrocarbon radical containing at least 9 carbon atoms which hydrocarbon radical may contain oneor more double bonds and may be substituted by hydroxy groups, Y represents an aliphatic hydrocarbon radical, which hydrocarbon radical may contain one or more double bonds and may be substituted'by hydroxy groups, and the salts of such compounds.
Representative polyalkylene polyamines which may be" employed in condensing with the fatty acids are diethylene triamine, dipropylene triaminepdibutylene triamine, triethylene tetrafrom 2 to 12 carbon atoms. It is an advantage lents of a fatty acid, or an amount of fatty acid g-lyceride sumcient to yield the equivalent of 2 mols. of the fatty acid, with one molecular equivalent of a 'polyalkylene polyamine at a temperature of about.230-240 C. until the reaction is complete. The compounds produced by the above are the type represented by the general of the present invention that relatively crude mixtures of the various polyamines may be used for reacting with the fatty acids or fatty acid glycerides which results. in the production of reagents at a lower cost than possible by using the purified polyamines. For example, when based on the saponiiication value of cottonseed oil and the average molecular weight of a crude mixture of polyethylene polyamines, a ratio of approximately 20 parts of amine to parts of oil will yield a product consisting essentially of diacyl derivatives. The product so produced is suitable for use as a silica promoter and it is not necessary to remove the glycerin split off by the reaction.
Either the saturated, unsaturated, or hydroxy fatty acids and fatty acid glyceride having at invention.
least 9 carbon atoms, may be employed for reacting with the polyamines. Representative acids and fatty acid glyceridesinclude lauric, palmitic, stearic, oleic, ricinoleic, capric, and cyristic, mixtures of such acids or glycerides and especially,
palm kernel oil, cottonseed oil, corn oil, linseed oil, olive oil, peanut oil, fish oils, and the like. The fatty acids or glycerides described above maybe replacedin part by short chain aliphatic acids; such as, formic, acetic, propionic, butync, va1eric; caproic, heptoic, octoic, lactic, hydroxybutyric, etc., to produce compounds in which Y is a short chain hydrocarbon radical and Y is a long chain hydrocarbon radical.
The promoter action of the reagents of the present invention will, of course, vary with different acidic ore materials and with the different polyalkylene polyamine fatty acid condensation products or salts used. For example, with the diacyl polyalkylene polyamines produced from fatty acid glycerides in which the average molecular weight of the fatty acids is comparatively low, such as those of coconut oil and palm kernel oil, the best results are obtained when such compounds are used in the form of their waterfor the flotation of feldspar from quartz and for the flotation of mica from quartz and calcite.
The reagents of the present invention may be used alone or in mixtures with other promoters.
til
soluble acid addition salts, for example, the
acetates. When the diacyl polyalkylene polyamine is produced from fatty acid glycerides the average molecular weight of the fatty acids of which is relativelyhigh, such as those of cottonseed oil, they give the best results when used in the form of the free base.' Therefore, it is not necessary in the presentinvention to use watersoluble salts, and the compounds in the form of the free base may beused provided satisfactory dispersion and distribution is effected. In the froth flotation operations, dispersion may be effectively obtained by feeding an alcoholic solution of the compound into the flotation circuit or by the use of emulsions containing the reagents from' non-metallic ores in which the siliceous gangue may represent a much smaller proportion of the ore rather than metallic and sulfide ores in which the gangue usually represents the major proportion of the ore. Representative acidic ore materials are the feldspars, quartz, pyroxenes, the spinels, biotite, muscovite, clays, and the like.
While as stated heretofore, the present invention is not limited to the treatment of any particular ore materials, it has been found to be well suited for froth flotation of silica from phosphate rock, and this is a preferred embodiment of the In the processes of removing silica from phosphate rock the conditions are such that practically complete removal of the silica must be accomplished in order to produce a salable phosphate material. It is therefore. an advantage of this invention that our reagentsnot only ef-* fect satisfactory removal of the silica but are economical in amounts used. The quantities required range from 0.1 pound to 2.0 pounds per ton of ore depending upon the particular ore and the particular reagent. The invention is not, however, limited to the use of such quantities.
These reagents have alsobeen successfully used They may likewise be used in conjunction with other cooperating materials such as conditioning reagents, activators, frothing reagents, depressing reagents, dispersing reagents, oily materials such as. hydrocarbon oils, fatty acids or fatty acid esters.
a These new reagents are also adaptable for use in any of the ordinary concentrating processes such as film flotation, tabling, and particularly in froth flotation operations. The ore concentrating processes employed will depend upon the particular type or kind of ore which is being processed. For example, in connection with phosphate rock, relatively coarse, phosphate bearing material, for example 28 mesh and larger, can be economically concentrated by using these reagents in conjunction with other materials such as fuel oil or pine oil and subjecting to concentration by the use of tables or by'film flotation. The 28 mesh phosphate rock material is best concentrated by means of froth flotation employing these improved silica promoters.
When the reagents of the present inventionare employed as promoters in the froth flotation of silica from phosphate rock the conditions may be varied in accordance with procedures known to those skilled in the art. The reagent may be employed in the form of aqueous solutions, emulsions, mixtures, or solutions in organic solvents such as alcohol and the like. The reagents may be introduced into the ore pulp in the flotation cell without prior conditioning or they may be conditioned with the ore pulp prior to the actual concentration operation. They may also be stage fed into the flotation circuit. a I
Qther improved phosphate flotation features which are known may be utilized in connection with the present invention such as the very complete removal of the slime prior to flotation which is an aid to better results, as pointed out in the Erickson application Serial No. 325.611, filed March 20, 1940, and the Mead and Maust application serial No. 320,121, filed February 21, 1940,
which describes a proces for classifying and desliming phosphate flotation feed by means of a hindered settling classifier and which deslimed feed is well suited for treatment in accordance with this invention. g
The invention will be further illustrated by the following specific examples which are illustrations .of the preferred embodiments thereof, but it is not intended to limit the; invention thereby.
