Zinc Sulfate as Flotation Depressant and Regulator

YuXing supplies zinc sulfate for mineral processing applications where a flotation depressant or regulator is required. It is a water-soluble inorganic salt supplied as white powder or colorless crystalline material.

In flotation circuits, zinc sulfate is commonly evaluated as a modifier to control unwanted mineral activation and improve selectivity. It can be used together with products such as copper sulfate, sodium sulfide and selected collectors.

Selection Notes for Buyers

  • Confirm CAS, formula, appearance, grade and solubility.
  • Share ore type, target minerals and flotation stage.
  • Confirm whether anhydrous or hydrated grade is required for your specification.
  • Request batch documents and packaging details before shipment.

Packaging, Storage & Documents

Typical packaging includes 25 kg or 50 kg bags. Store sealed in a dry and ventilated area, protected from moisture.

YuXing can provide available specification, MSDS and CoA according to supplied grade and order requirements.

Zinc Sulfate Selection for Flotation Circuits

In selective sulfide flotation, zinc sulfate is commonly evaluated as a regulator or depressant. Its effect depends on mineralogy, oxidation, pH and the other modifiers present, so purchasing specifications should be tied to a tested reagent scheme.

Key Purchasing Parameters

  • State the required hydrate form and whether assay is reported as ZnSO₄ or zinc content.
  • Confirm zinc, insoluble matter, iron, chloride, pH and moisture limits for the grade.
  • Describe the mineral to be depressed, valuable mineral to be recovered and flotation stage.
  • Validate dosage with the collector, activator and depressant combination used at the plant.

Compare copper sulfate pentahydrate, sodium metabisulfite, mining chemicals as part of the wider process review; these products should not be treated as direct substitutes without application testing.

Information to Include in an Inquiry

Send ore type, process stage, target specification, expected monthly quantity, bag size and destination. A sample or trial lot should be agreed before changing a plant reagent scheme.
