ION FLOTATION OF PLATINUM IONS

摘要

A method for ion flotation of platinum ions, characterised in that the flotation reagent employed is a cationic surfactant of formula (I), wherein R<1> is a C10-C18 alkyl group, R<3> is a lower alkyl group, or benzene ring optionally substituted with one or more lower alkyl groups, and R<2> and R<4> are lower alkyl groups; or R<1>, R<2> and R<4> are methyl groups, and R<3> is a benzene ring substituted with a C10-C18 alkoxy groups; and X is a halogen atom.
