Natural Oleic Acid

Molecular Formula: C₁₈H₃₄O₂
Molecular Weight: 282.46
Natural oleic acid is derived from the refining of vegetable oils. It is a pale yellow oily liquid with a mild odor. It is often used as a collector for the flotation of non-metallic minerals, and is commonly employed in the separation of fluorite, feldspar, and rare earth oxides. It can also be used for mineral desilting and flotation adjustment, and is suitable for various mining and beneficiation conditions.

Natural oleic acid is derived from the refining of vegetable oils. It is a pale yellow oily liquid with a mild odor.

It can also be used for mineral desilting and flotation adjustment, and is suitable for various mining and beneficiation conditions.

At room temperature, it is a transparent, oily liquid ranging in color from pale yellow to light yellow; in low-temperature environments, it may become slightly turbid and precipitate a small amount of flocculent solids. It possesses a faint, natural oil-like odor and is free of any pungent or offensive smells.

Safe Storage and Transport

Flammable liquid; keep away from open flames, high-temperature heat sources, and strong oxidizing agents.

Store in a sealed container in a cool, well-ventilated area; protect from light and isolate from air to prevent oxidative rancidity and discoloration.

Transport as a standard industrial chemical; protect against rain, direct sunlight, and leakage.

Wear protective gloves during handling to prevent prolonged skin degreasing and irritation.

Product advantages

It contains few natural component impurities, has mild and stable wetting performance, and good mineral selectivity; it is resistant to low temperatures and hard water, and is unlikely to fail when the water quality changes; the foam is fine and easy to control, which is convenient for subsequent processing; it has good environmental performance, with low drug residue and is more friendly to the beneficiation environment.
