Collectors are organic compounds used in mineral flotation to selectively enhance the hydrophobicity (water-repellent property) of target mineral surfaces. By adsorbing onto specific minerals, they allow air bubbles to attach and carry them to the surface as froth, while unwanted gangue minerals remain in the slurry.Collectors enable economic extraction of low-grade ores by improving mineral recovery rates. Their selection depends on ore type, pH, and process conditions.
