1 Froth Flotation – Fundamental Principles
The function of frothers in flotation is that of building the froth which serves as the buoyant medium in the separation of the floatable from the non-floatable minerals. Frothers accomplish this by lowering the surface tension of …

Basic Principles & Variables Affecting Froth Flotation
The purpose of the oil in froth-flotation is (1) to form, together with the water and solid of the pulp and the gas introduced into the pulp, a froth; and (2), to aid in the selection of the particles of mineral of metallic, resinous or adamantine luster in the pulp from the gangue minerals. Not all oils will perform both of these functions ...

Froth flotation process and its application
3.3. Froth stabilizers Reagents which are used to increase the life time of the froth (to prevent the froth from going into the solution again) are known as froth stabilizers. Example: aniline, cresol etc. Both the collectors and frothers are heteropolar in nature. The main difference between them is their affinity behaviour.

Froth Flotation and Gold Extraction
Most methods of water-based gold extraction are dependent on gold's lack of buoyancy to work. However, froth flotation uses a different property of gold to separate it from ore. Froth flotation is a method for separating hydrophobic materials (which will not mix with water) from hydrophilic materials (which readily mix with water).

Here potassium ethyl xanthate acts as a collector. $ce{KCN}$ and $ce{NaOH}$ depress the floatation property of $ce{ZnS}$ and $ce{FeS2}$ particles. Thus, only $ce{PbS}$ particles go into the froth. Now copper sulphate is added to the mixture which activates floating character of $ce{ZnS}$ and this time only $ce{ZnS}$ comes along with froth.
