Aiming at the influence of the flotation reagent on KCl flotation in industrial production
the best experimental condition of the determination of the octadecylamine(ODA) content in brine from KCl flotation by spectrophotometer with bromocresol green(BCG) as indicator is studied.The results indicate: the molar absorptivity of the complex of ODA and BCG is 1.4×104 L/(mol·com) at wave length of 414 nm
Beer's law is obeyed in the range of 1×10-5~10×10-5 mol/L;the relative error of ODA is about-1.94%
with RSD=1.54%.This method applied to the determination of ODA in brine samples of KCl flotation is more stable
simple sensitive
accurate
cheap and easy to get required reagent
simple and quick to operate
which provides an effective method for trace analysis of ODA
