Km. Aleksandrovich et al., COLLOID-CHEMICAL PROPERTIES AND APPLICATION OF NONAQUEOUS SOLUTIONS OF ALIPHATIC-AMINES IN SALT MEDIA, Colloid journal of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 55(3), 1993, pp. 327-333
The authors investigated the physicochemical properties of solutions o
f aliphatic amines in lipids of a protolytic nature. It was establishe
d that the high degree of dispersion of amines and ionization of their
molecules in polar organic solvents results in their resistance to th
e salting-out action of electrolytes and promotes formation of a dense
adsorption film on the surface of salt minerals with low equilibrium
concentrations in the solution, thus providing for high collecting ann
anticaking action of amines in the process of producing potassium fer
tilizers by the flotation method.
