【Application】Methyl isobutyl carbinol (MIBC) is an excellent foaming agent for both metallic and non-metallic ores. It is mainly used as a foaming agent for the separation of oxidized ores of non-ferrous metals or fine-grained sulfide ores with high clay content. It is widely used in the beneficiation of lead-zinc ores, copper-molybdenum ores, and copper-gold ores around the world, and is particularly effective in improving the quality of concentrate.
