Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 133 words
A process for the preparation of a liquid cationic flotation composition comprising: reacting, at a temperature of between about 100* and about 300* C., a tall oil fatty acid having an acid value of 195-199, a saponification value of 197-200, an iodine value of 129-131 and containing 0.3 to 4.2 percent rosin acid and 0.4 to 1.6 percent unsaponifiables, with diethylene triamine, cooling the thus formed product and treating said product with glacial acetic acid, the ratio of fatty acid to diethylene triamine to acetic acid being about 1:1.5-2.5:0.2-1.0, respectively; cooling the product from said reaction and treating said product with from about 20 to 40 by weight of an alcohol having a boiling point between about 131* and 161* C. selected from the group consisting of methylisobutyl carbinol, heptanol, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 139 words
A liquid cationic ore separation flotation composition comprising from about 20 to 40 percent by weight of an aliphatic alcohol having a boiling point between about 131* and 161* C. selected from the group consisting of methylisobutyl carbinol, heptanol, and mixtures thereof, and about 60 to 80 percent by weight of the product obtained by reacting approximately one equivalent of a tall oil faTty acid having an acid value of 195-199, a saponification value of 197-200, an iodine value of 129-131 and containing from about 0.3 to 4.2 percent rosin acid and 0.4 to 1.6 percent unsaponifiables with from about 1.5 to 2.5 equivalents of diethylene triamine at a temperature between about 100* and 300* C. and thereafter treating the product with from about 0.2 to 1.0 equivalents of glacial acetic acid to at least partially neutralize the product.
