Flotation collectors, depressants, frothers, dewatering aids and additional process aids
Harness our mineral processing expertise through the application of our optimized chemical solutions
We help maximize the performance of your mining chemicals by applying our world-class technical and application expertise to the design of our solutions.
Building on more than 80 years of experience in designing mineral processing chemicals for mining applications, we closely collaborate with our customers to customize solutions that fit each individual ore.
Our product portfolio includes flotation collectors, frothers, and depressants such as NaSH and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC); dewatering and anticaking processing aids; sulfidizing agents; hydrometallurgical oxidizing agents; organic peroxides; and thermoplastic microspheres.
We can also support you in reducing environmental impact while enhancing your rate of recovery for minerals such as potash, iron ore, phosphate apatite, sulfide, calcite, and more.
