Sodium Amyl Xanthate

Sodium amyl xanthate is an alkali-metal xanthate used as a flotation collector. Japan’s NITE chemical database identifies CAS 7607-99-0 as sodium O-pentyl carbonodithioate, supporting the supplied sodium amyl xanthate identity.

The product is used where relatively strong collection of sulfide minerals is required. Commercial xanthates can differ in assay, moisture and residual alkali, all of which can affect storage stability and flotation performance. The supplied 85% minimum specification should therefore remain a client-confirmed commercial property rather than being presented as a universal value.
