In flotation operations dealing with fine-grained clays and slow tailings settling, D497 offers a targeted and reliable solution. Developed by Y&X Beijing Technology Co., Ltd., this clay depressant improves both concentrate selectivity and tailings handling, making it a dual-function reagent for modern concentrators.
Clay Interference in Flotation
Suppresses montmorillonite, kaolinite, and similar minerals that coat valuable particles or destabilize froth.
Poor Tailings Sedimentation
Promotes faster settling of suspended solids, improving water recovery and thickener performance.
Low-Concentration Systems
Effective even in low-alkalinity environments, without the need for excessive lime.
High Slime or Fines Content
Especially useful in ore bodies with fine gangue particles that are easily entrained.
Form: White solid granules
Dosage: 20-500 g/t (based on ore conditions)
Solution Preparation: 2-5% in clean water ≥5°C
Packaging: 25 kg / 50 kg bags
Shelf Life: 24 months
Can be used alone or with sodium silicate for enhanced performance (recommended ratio 1:1-3:1)
Add to ball mill, conditioning tank, or directly into flotation feed
Requires standard PPE and safe storage away from oxidizers or acids
D497 gives flotation circuits better control over slimes, cleaner concentrate output, and faster water recovery - all with simple handling and cost-effective use.
