The depressive efficiency of sodium silicate, sodium hexametaphosphate, and tartaric acid on the flotation separation of molybdenum oxide from fluorapatite were examined using cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) as the collector. The corresponding depression mechanisms of all three depressants were studied with the use of laboratory measurements. Individual mineral flotation tests and adsorption studies showed that all these depressants have a higher depression effect on fluorapatite than molybdenum oxide. Sodium hexametaphosphate has the strongest depression effect on fluorapatite and can reduce the flotation recovery as low as less than 20%. Infrared spectroscopy and zeta potential tests proved the rationality of the flotation results, indicating that when CPC was used as a collector, the effect of sodium hexametaphosphate on the surface of molybdenum oxide was smaller than that on fluorapatite. The adsorption of hexametaphosphate on the surface of fluorapatite was determined to be physical adsorption.
