Sodium Isobutyl Xanthate Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- SIBX
- Sodium Isobutylxanthate
- Sodium Isobutyl Xanthogenate
Sodium isobutyl xanthate is a sulphide-mineral flotation collector used in mineral processing. Buyers seeking a sodium isobutyl xanthate supplier in Malaysia commonly use the abbreviation SIBX and may specify the product as sodium isobutylxanthate or sodium isobutyl xanthogenate.
Commercial forms include free-flowing pellets, granules and powder, with aqueous solution grades used less commonly. Buyers select the grade by physical form and active xanthate content, so both details should be included in a reagent or purchasing specification rather than inferred from the product name alone.
SIBX is used in flotation circuits for copper, lead, zinc, gold-bearing and other sulphide ores, and in selected metal-precipitation duties. Sodium ethyl xanthate, sodium isopropyl xanthate and potassium amyl xanthate are separate collector chemistries and are not aliases or interchangeable grades of this product.
Send the ore or treatment application, required form, active-content specification, quantity and delivery location with the enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation, delivery timing and price are confirmed with the quotation for the selected SIBX grade.

Common questions about sodium isobutyl xanthate
What is sodium isobutyl xanthate used for?
SIBX is used as a collector in sulphide-mineral flotation, including circuits processing copper, lead, zinc and gold-bearing ores. Grade selection depends on the circuit and reagent programme.
Are sodium ethyl xanthate, SIPX and PAX aliases for SIBX?
No. They are separate xanthate products with different alkyl groups, collector strength and selectivity, so they should be evaluated and quoted under their own identities.
Which SIBX forms can be specified?
Commercial forms include pellets, granules, powder and, less commonly, aqueous solutions. State the preferred form and active-content requirement so the offered grade can be matched to the handling and process needs.
What information is needed for a quotation?
Provide the ore or treatment application, required form, active-content specification, quantity, delivery location, packing preference and document list. Packing and documentation are confirmed with the quotation.
