To meet growing lithium demand, especially for electric vehicle batteries, suppliers are searching for more efficient means of producing high-purity lithium with reduced effort, cost and environmental impact. Syensqo's specialty mining reagents facilitate lithium processing from hard-rock sources through flotation. Our offerings improve productivity and reduce customers' operating costs.
Syensqo's Portfolio for Lithium Mineral Flotation
Syensqo's reagents for lithium beneficiation optimize spodumene flotation processes, enabling mining operations to produce high-grade spodumene concentrates with low iron content.
- Our anionic and cationic AERO® collectors for hard-rock lithium processing offer improved performance, greater selectivity and better overall metallurgical performance than traditional sulfide collectors.
- Our AEROFROTH® frothers are alcohol- and glycol-based products formulated to optimize spodumene flotation systems. Syensqo's frothers for lithium recovery allow for lower dosages compared to typical branched alcohols.
- Our CYQUEST® dispersants are synthetic anionic polymers that feature a low-to-high molecular weight. These mining reagents for lithium processing optimize collector performance by modifying pulp rheology to enhance lithium grade and recovery.
