摘要

The mechanism ofIron sulfide minerals the influence exerted by electromagnetic-pulse impacts of two types (high-voltage nanosecond electromagnetic pulses and dielectric-barrier discharge in air at atmospheric pressure) on the morphology, structural and physical–chemical properties of natural iron sulfide mineralsIron sulfide minerals (pyrrhotite, pyritePyrite and arsenopyrite) has been investigated and explored here. The study aims to establish a relationship between the pulsed plasma-chemical treatment parameters with the physicochemicalPhysicochemical and flotationFlotation properties of sulfide mineralsMineral. We used the methods of analytical electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, potentiometric titration (electrode potentialElectrode potential), acid–base adsorptionAdsorption indicators from an aqueous medium (Hammet indicator method), microhardness, sorptionSorption and flotationFlotation tests. For pyrrhotite, the greatest changes in the electrode potentialElectrode potential were found at pH 9.5–12 and for the mode of short-term (ttreat = 10 s) plasma treatment of the mineralMineral: a potential shift towards negative values (–60 mV) was observed, which predetermines the effect of reducing the sorptionSorption and flotationFlotation activity of pyrrhotite.
