（2)Mineral processing, improve the efficiency of mineral processing process, so as to improve the recovery rate and purity of the final product.

PBX and SBX are mainly used in mining to concentrate valuable minerals:

Sulfide Ore Flotation: Effective in the flotation of non-ferrous metal sulfide ores like copper, lead, zinc, and nickel.
Specific Mineral Targeting: Particularly suitable for chalcopyrite, sphalerite, and pyrite.
Selective Separation: Can selectively separate copper sulfide from iron sulfide minerals and are used in sphalerite flotation after copper sulfate activation.

Other Uses

Sodium butyl xanthate also has applications in other industries:

Rubber Manufacturing: Used as a vulcanization accelerator in rubber production.
Agricultural Chemicals: Serves as a raw material for certain herbicides, bactericides, and pesticides
