As an important strategic non-metallic mineral resource, fluorite has been widely used in various industrial fields, such as metallurgy, optics and semiconductor manufacturing, as well as fluorine-related chemical engineering. Since the major gangue minerals of fluorite ore are silicate and carbonate ones, flotation is the main …
The results of flotation tests showed that highly selective separation of fluorite from barite was obtained when 250 mg/dm3 of modified starch and 13.16×10−5 mol/dm3 sodium oleate was used in neutral solutions. FTIR spectra results showed that the modified starch can adsorb on the fluorite and barite surfaces.
Finally, the most widely seen fluorite-flotation cases, including separation of fluorite from quartz, calcite, barite, and sulfide, are summarized individually. The present review sheds new light on the deep understanding of fluorite flotation, the future …
The seed crystal, fluorite, helps improve the growth of perfect CaF 2 crystals. The solution and interfacial behaviors of the ions were calculated by molecular simulations. The existing perfect surface of fluorite was proven to provide the active sites for ion adhesion and formed a more ordered attachment layer than the precipitation procedure.
Normally fluorite was collected by fatty acid collectors at pH 5–11, rendering the surface to be hydrophobic. In this study, we found that fluorite surfaces are naturally hydrophobic at high pH without any surfactant, which is beneficial for the selective flotation separation of fluorite from calcite.In a flotation test, fluorite recovery showed a …

Fluorite (CaF 2) is by far the most important fluorine-bearing mineral phase in the Earth's crust.It is mostly used for manufacturing glass, cement, fillers, and hydrofluoric acid, and as a flux in steel-making in various industries [1,2,3].In order to obtain high grade fluorite raw materials (CaF 2 ≥ 97%), froth flotation has been the most commonly used …
XFG flotation machine was utilized for flotation experiments and the stirring speed was fixed at 1400 rpm. For each flotation experiment, 2.0 g of mineral particles and 40 mL of ultrapure water were added to a flotation cell, and the mixture was conditioned with acid/base solutions to the desired pH value (shown in the captions of Fig. 2,3 and 4).

Fluorite is commercially named fluorspar composed of calcium fluoride (CaF2). It is the principal source of fluorine. The same is used in the production of hydrofluoric acid, which is used in a wide variety of industrial applications including glass etching. Fluorite tends to occur in well-formed isometric crystals, forming cubes and …
In the presence of NaOl alone, the hydrophilic heads of the oleate species are chemisorbed on the bastnaesite surface, with the hydrophobic tails exposed to the solution, resulting in bastnaesite flotation.
