Behavior and Mechanism of a Novel Hydrophobic Collector in the Flotation of Bastnaesite

In order to improve the recovery of rare earth elements, finding a collector with a strong selectivity ability had become the focus of research. In this paper, phenylpropyl hydroxamic acid (PHA) was used as a new hydrophobic surfactant collector for the separation of bastnaesite from calcite, and sa...
