Advantages:
2. Polymers can act in a wide range of pH and Eh, with undesirable ions in the
pulp.
Disadvantages:
1. Experts are needed to create complex formulas for the use of polymers for
each particular ore. Ready-made effective formulas practically do not exist.
3. Polymers have low selectivity and in excess can suppress all minerals.
Minerals of the 1st group are suppressed very easily: Actinolite, Benitoite,
Biotite, Illite, Kaolinite, Muscovite, Phlogopite, Pyrophyllite, Sericite, Steatite and
flotation active silicate minerals; Anhydrite, Gypsum; Molybdenite.
Minerals of 2nd group are easily suppressed, but worse than the minerals
of group 1: Baryte, Calcite, Dolomite, Olivine, Zircon; Hematite, Hydrogoethite,
Limonite, Magnetite and other iron oxides; Diopside, Enstatite, Spodumene;
Apatite.
Minerals of 3rd group are suppressed worse than the minerals of groups 1
and 2: Chalcopyrite, Galena, Pyrite, Sphalerite and other sulphides.
