Sodium Isopropyl Xanthate Supplier Malaysia | SIPX
- Also known as
- SIPX
- Sodium Iso-Propyl Xanthate
Sodium isopropyl xanthate is supplied as a mineral-flotation collector for mining and mineral-processing operations in Malaysia. Commonly abbreviated as SIPX, it is selected for sulphide-mineral circuits according to ore mineralogy, reagent scheme and plant operating conditions.
Commercial options include powder, granular and pelletised or low-dust forms with a defined active-content specification. The appropriate form depends on storage, preparation and dosing equipment, while collector performance must be confirmed through laboratory and plant testing.
SIPX is used in selected copper, zinc and other sulphide-ore flotation programmes as part of a complete reagent suite. It is a separate product from sodium isobutyl xanthate and potassium amyl xanthate, so the specified collector should not be substituted by abbreviation alone.
Send the required form and specification, mineral target, consumption quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed for the selected sodium isopropyl xanthate grade.

Common questions about sodium isopropyl xanthate
What is sodium isopropyl xanthate used for?
SIPX is used as a flotation collector for selected sulphide-mineral systems. Suitability and dosage depend on ore mineralogy, water chemistry and the complete reagent scheme.
Is SIPX the same as sodium isobutyl xanthate?
No. They are separate xanthate collectors with different alkyl groups and flotation behaviour. Order the exact collector identified by the plant or laboratory test programme.
Which SIPX form should I request?
Powder, granular and pelletised forms differ mainly in handling and dosing behaviour. State the preparation system, dust-control preference and required active specification with the enquiry.
Can SIPX dosage be selected from the product name alone?
No. Collector dosage should be established through ore testing and plant optimisation because mineralogy, pH, water chemistry and other reagents affect performance.
What information is needed for a sodium isopropyl xanthate quote?
Include form, active-content specification, mineral target, regular consumption, quantity, delivery location and required safety or quality documents.
