Octyl Hydroxamic Acid

Octyl Hydroxamic Acid is an organic compound. Hydroxamic acids are a class of rganic compounds. They have the functional group Rc(OINl0HiR where R and R
are organic residues and co is the carbonyl group.They are amides.They are used extensively for the fiotation of rare earth minerals during concentration and
extraction of ores, Octyl Hydroxamic Acid is a veryuseful chemical compound which is made by the reaction of esters or acid chlorides with hydroxylamine sats. ts
chemical formula is C9Hl9NO2.
chemical Appearance
Ocbyl Hydroxamic Acid has the appearance of a dark yellow coloured solid. it has no distinct odou.it is readily soluble in water and also in akaine solutions. it has a
pH level betwveen 10 to 13.
chemical Applications and Strengths
Octyl Hydroxamic Acid or N-Hydroxynonanamide is an extremely ueful chemical compound and therefore, ha many industrial applications. its main aplications
and strengths are:
Octyl Hydroxamic Acid is most commonly used in mining industries.
.It is a very good collector and flotation agent especialywith oxidised sulide and diferent metaic oxides.it can even extract the ones that are very dificult to
extract using other collector agents.
.It has a very strong collection power with wolframite, copper oxide ores, titanic iron, hematite, niobium ores, and many more.
It can strongly extract many non ferrous metals as well.
Octyl hydroxamic acid is a stronger collector than sodium oleate for the flotation of fine pyrochlore. it is because it has a higher chemisorption affnity of the
hydroxamate to pyrochlore.
It is used as an effective metal chelator.
It has also been investigated for reprocessing of irradiated fuel
It is a strong floater of cobalt and copper in alkaline conditions
It is widely used for cancer therapy.
It is also used as a mutagenic agent.
Hydroxamic Acids are generaly used as insecticides,anti-fungal agents, antimicrobials, siderophores and plant growth regulator, anti Hlv, antimalarial
antineoplastic agents, tumour suppressors, MMP inhibitors and other applications.
Its chain length increases along with the broadening of flotability.
It is usually used by many as an aqueous solution.
Its pH ranges from 10 to 13 and in this pH range the flotation and collection ability is extremely strong and effective
Note: Octyl Hydroxamic Acid should be placed in an environment that is away from exposure to water and excessive heat ofire or sunlight it has a tendency to
solidify if it is placed in cold confinement.
