Carboxymethyl Cellulose
As a leading supplier in China, we offer high-quality Mining Grade Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC), an anionic cellulose ether crucial for enhancing mineral processing. Our CMC is meticulously produced from cotton fiber through alkalization, etherification, purification, drying, and granulation, ensuring a white powder or granular product with excellent thickening, stabilizing, emulsifying, suspending, and film-forming properties. This makes it an indispensable component for improving wet ball, dry ball, and roasted pellet ore performance, thereby increasing the grade of pelletized ore and boosting cost efficiency in mineral separation.
- Leverage Mining Grade CMC as Pellet Binder: Our product significantly improves the adhesion and balling properties of ore powders, leading to pellets with superior resistance to bursting and high dry/wet ball compression strength.
- Utilize CMC Flotation Inhibitor for Base Metals: In mineral processing, our CMC acts as an effective flotation inhibitor, reducing the consumption of other mine inhibitors and thus lowering actual costs while improving the recovery rate of valuable metals.
- Enhance Ore Pellet Grade with CMC: The superior binding capabilities of our CMC ensure that pellets maintain their integrity, leading to a higher final grade of processed ore and improved overall efficiency.
- Achieve Cost-Effective Mineral Separation with CMC: By optimizing the flotation process and reducing additive costs, our Mining Grade CMC offers a cost-effective solution for mineral separation, particularly for minerals like copper, gold, and nickel.
Advantages in Mining Operations
Superior Pellet Binding
Our Mining Grade CMC provides excellent adhesion and balling properties, crucial for producing high-quality ore pellets that resist disintegration and maintain structural integrity.
Enhanced Metal Recovery
As a flotation inhibitor, CMC can effectively reduce the consumption of other agents, leading to lower operational costs and a higher recovery rate of valuable metals through improved mineral separation.
Cost-Effective Processing
By improving pellet quality and optimizing flotation processes, our CMC contributes to a more cost-effective mineral processing operation, especially for critical metals.
Key Applications
Ore Pelletizing
Our Mining Grade CMC is a vital binder for ore powder molding, ensuring the production of strong, high-grade pellets essential for smelting and further processing.
Mineral Flotation
As a flotation inhibitor, CMC aids in the selective separation of valuable minerals from gangue, significantly improving the efficiency and yield of base metal extraction.
Oil Drilling
While primarily for mining, CMC's rheological properties also make it valuable as an additive in drilling fluids to control viscosity and prevent fluid loss.
Paper Making
CMC finds applications in paper chemicals, acting as a sizing agent to improve paper strength and surface properties.
