MINING GRADE CMC

Introduction:

CMC is an anionic water-soluble polymer based on renewable cellulosic raw material.

In mining operations, WGCEL CMC products are developed specifically for mineral flotation and depressants.

Key Functions:

Viscosity Control: CMC is used as a thickening agent in drilling fluids to maintain the required viscosity, ensuring efficient removal of cuttings from the borehole.

Water Retention: It helps retain moisture in mining applications, preventing excessive water loss in slurries and improving processing efficiency.

Flotation Aid: CMC acts as a depressant in mineral flotation, selectively preventing unwanted gangue minerals (such as clay and silica) from floating, improving ore separation.

Binding Agent: It helps in pelletizing fine ore particles, improving the strength and stability of pellets used in metallurgy.

Dust Suppression: It is used to control dust in mining operations by binding fine particles and reducing airborne dust levels. 

Packing and Storage:

Packing: 25kg/50lb kraft paper bag with PE inner. customizable packaging

Storage Conditions:

Temperature: Store in a cool, dry place at temperatures between 5°C and 30°C (41°F – 86°F).  

Humidity: Keep in an environment with low humidity (<50% RH) to prevent moisture absorption.  

Ventilation: Ensure proper air circulation to avoid condensation and clumping.  

Avoid Direct Sunlight: Store away from direct heat and UV light to prevent degradation.
