α-Amino Phosphonic Acid as the Oxidized Ore Collector: Flexible Intra-Molecular Proton Transfer Providing an Improved Flotation Efficiency

The efficient separation of ilmenite is a difficult problem in minerals flotation. For this issue, <i>α</i>-aminooctyl phosphinic acid (APA) was developed as a selective collector to separate ilmenite. The flotation test result showed that APA was more efficient for improving ilmenite re...
