The uses of guar gum in metallurgy are as follows:
1. As a flotation agent: guar gum can form stable colloidal particles and can generate affinity with the surface of metal minerals, thus Improve its flotation performance in the water phase.
2. As a precipitating agent: Guar gum can form a complex with metal ions, causing it to precipitate into stable particles and is used in wastewater treatment and metal recycling.
3. As a binding agent: After guar gum is added to a solution containing iron, copper and other metal ions, it can form a gel-like substance, which can be used to bind granular materials or In the fields of making ceramics
4. As a protective agent: Guar gum can form a protective film with the metal surface, making it resistant to oxidation, corrosion, etc.
5. Guar gum has many uses in the metallurgical industry and can improve metal flotation performance, wastewater treatment and metal recovery efficiency, adhesion and protection.
