Abstract

The point of zero charge (PZC) of malachite has been determined to be pH 7.9, which is found to correspond closely to the weighted average of EP(Cu2+, HCO3−) and EP(CuOH+ , Cu(OH) 3−) of the malachite-water-air system. The hydroxamate flotation of malachite is effective between pH 6 and 10, a region in which HCO3− and CuOH+ ions are the predominant potential determining ions for malachite. Adsorption measurements and infrared analysis indicate that in this pH range octyl hydroxamate chemisorbs on malachite surface. A proposed chemisorption mechanism suggests that a pair of HCO3− and OH− ions is displaced for each hydroxamate ion adsorbed. Résumé On a déterminé que le PCN de la malachite se situe à un pH de 7.9, ce qui est très proche de la moyenne du PE(Cu2+, HCO3−) et du PE(CuOH+ , Cu(OH) 3−) du système malachite-eau-air. On peut flotter la malachite en utilisant un hydroxamate comme collecteur entre un pH de 6 et de 10, ce qui correspond à la règion de prèdominance des ions HCO3− et CuOH+, en ce qui a trait au potentiel de la malachite. On a pu déterminer, à l'aide de mesures d'adsoption et d'analyses infrarouges, que l'octyl-hydroxamate est chemisorbé à la surface de la malachite à ces pH. On propose un méchamisme de chemisorption qui suggèrerait qu'une paire d'anions HC3− et OH− est déplacée pour chaque ion hydroxamate adsorbé.
