Abstract
Surface tension isotherms and fluorite flotation were studied in syste ms containing myristic acid derivatives in which carbon atoms in the h ydrocarbon skeleton were partly replaced by oxygen and/or sulphur atom s. The location of the oxygen and sulphur atoms affects significantly compound hydrophobicity, adsorption at the air/water interface and flu orite flotation. The most effective collectors were the compounds with one oxygen or sulphur atom close to the carboxylic group.
