Product overview
Alkyl Hydroxamic Acid is a long-chain chelating collector family used for oxide and non-sulfide minerals including cassiterite, scheelite, rare-earth minerals and selected copper or iron oxides. Because it is a mixture rather than one defined molecule, alkyl distribution, active content, free fatty acid, carrier and pH are essential purchasing parameters.
