Metal extractant refers to a chemical reagent that reacts with the extracted metal to form an extraction compound and extracts it into the organic phase to achieve the purpose of metal purification and enrichment. Copper extractant is a representative product of metal extractant, which refers to chemical reagents used for the extraction and separation of copper and other elements. Copper extractants have the advantages of good chemical stability, good stripping performance, and strong extraction ability, and are widely used in hydrometallurgical copper smelting processes.

Currently, three commonly used copper extraction agents include ketoxime-aldoxime mixtures, ketoximes, and aldoxime-modifiers. The ketoxime-aldoxime mixture copper extractant can effectively improve the balance of copper elements, aldoximes and hydrogen ions, and is the most widely used copper extractant; the ketoxime copper extractant has the advantages of good phase separation and good chemical stability. , but the extraction efficiency is low; the aldoxime-modifier copper extractant needs to be modified with modifiers such as tridecanol, esters and nonylphenol, which has shortcomings such as poor chemical stability and difficulty in back-extraction.

Copper extractant is mainly used in hydrometallurgical copper smelting process. According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, my country’s refined copper output will reach 11.063 million tons in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 4.5%. my country is the world’s largest consumer of copper resources, accounting for nearly 50% of the global market. Driven by downstream demand, my country’s copper extractant production continues to increase. According to the “2023-2028 China Copper Extractant Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center, In 2022, my country’s copper extractant output will reach 6412.7 tons, a year-on-year increase of 21.6%.

The global copper extractant market is mainly concentrated in European and American countries, including BASF, Cognis, Solvay, Innospec, and Set Cytec Industries is a major player in the global copper extractant market. Among them, BASF and Solvay are the world’s largest copper extractant manufacturers.

The main manufacturers of copper extractants in my country include Chongqing Kangpu Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., Zhengzhou Deyuan Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd., Fujian Zijin Mineral Processing Agent Co., Ltd., Guangzhou Yuanda New Materials Co., Ltd., etc. CommScope Chemicals is my country’s leading copper extractant company, occupying nearly 60% of the market share. In recent years, CommScope Chemical has continuously increased its research on the preparation process of copper extractants, and its product quality has achieved competitive advantages in the entire market. According to CommScope Chemical’s financial report, the company’s copper extractant revenue reached 130 million yuan in the first half of 2022.

Industry analysts said that as a representative product of metal extractants, copper extractants have excellent performance and are widely used in hydrometallurgical copper smelting processes. With increasing downstream demand, the development speed of my country’s copper extractant industry will further accelerate. For a long time, due to factors such as high technical barriers, the global copper extractant market has been dominated by European and American countries. As the level of technological innovation of local enterprises continues to improve, the output and quality of copper extractants in my country will further increase.
