Structural Formula:

Description:
A yellowish or pale grey powder or pellet with a pungent odour,soluble
in water.
Principal uses:
Potassium amyl xanthate is a strong collector. It is widely
used in the flotation processes of nonferrous metallic minerals
where a strong but a non-selective collector is desired. It is a
good collector for the flotation of oxide minerals, eg.: oxidized
sulfide, copper and lead ores. Copper-nickel sulfide and auriferous
pyrite etc also require potassium amyl xanthate as flotation collector.
