AEROPHINE® 3189 is a selective phosphinate/dithiophosphinic collector used for the flotation of gold, silver, copper, and complex sulfide ores. It delivers strong adsorption, high selectivity against pyrite, and excellent performance in partially oxidized or difficult-to-treat ore bodies.
AEROPHINE® 3189 is a high-performance phosphinate/dithiophosphinic collector formulated for the selective flotation of precious metals and complex base-metal sulfides.
Widely recognized for its superior selectivity, strong adsorption, and clean froth characteristics, AEROPHINE® 3189 is used globally in gold, silver, copper, and copper–zinc flotation circuits requiring precise metallurgical control.
Designed for modern mineral processing operations, AEROPHINE® 3189 delivers:
• High selectivity against pyrite, pyrrhotite, and iron sulfides
• Enhanced recovery of gold, silver, chalcopyrite, and polymetallic sulfides
• Improved performance in partially oxidized, transition, and complex ores
• Stable activity across a wide pH and pulp chemistry range
• Reduced reagent consumption with higher concentrate grade
• Cleaner flotation circuits when used alone or as a xanthate booster
AEROPHINE® 3189 is particularly effective in:
• gold–silver flotation plants seeking higher recovery and cleaner concentrate
• copper and copper–zinc circuits requiring selective activation control
• polymetallic and finely disseminated sulfide ores
• operations where xanthates provide insufficient selectivity or grade
