Abstract
it is an established fact that the collecting properties of xanthates and anionic collectors are dependent on the hydrocarbon chain length. This is ascribed to the greater adsorption densities caused by increasing the xanthate chain length. As batch flotation tests showed similar trends for amines, an investigation of the adsorbing properties of amines was undertaken. Because earlier investigations showed adsorption densities for dodecylamine salts on quartz varying as much as 20 times under apparently similar conditions,1-4 it was decided to make a survey of the changes in adsorption density due to the drying conditions of the quartz. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE The quartz, handpicked in the pegmatite quarries of Iveland, Setesdal, had the following composition: SiO2 99.81, A12O3 0.01, Fe2O3 0.05 and loss by ig-
