Product Description
Benzylarsonic Acid is an organoarsenic collector identified by CAS 618-45-1 and EC/EINECS 210-552-4.
Synonyms: Benzylarsonic acid; Phenylmethanearsonic acid; (Phenylmethyl)arsonic acid; Benzylarsenic acid.
CAS: 618-45-1.
Molecular formula: C₇H₉AsO₃.
Molecular weight: 216.08.
EC number: 210-552-4.
It is an off-white, odorless powder that is chemically stable and non-deliquescent.
It is soluble in hot water or alkaline solution and can form insoluble compounds with various metal ions.
It is used as a flotation collector for cassiterite, wolframite, rare-earth ores and certain metal oxide ores.
Its arsonic acid group can bind to mineral surfaces and modify flotation behavior in mineral-processing circuits.
Confirm assay or active content, inorganic arsenic content, residual chloride or sulfate, particle size and moisture.
It is an arsenic-containing compound: store in tightly closed containers in a dry, ventilated area away from food, feed, water sources and incompatible materials; use full PPE, dust controls and applicable exposure, spill and disposal controls.
Confirm the current product-specific specification.
Confirm packaging with the requested quantity and destination requirements.
Document requirements should be confirmed from the current specification, SDS, COA, or other product-specific files.

FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain
-
Q:
What is Benzylarsonic Acid and how is it identified?
A: Benzylarsonic acid is an organoarsenic collector with CAS 618-45-1, molecular formula C₇H₉AsO₃ and molecular weight 216.08. It is also known as benzylarsenic acid and phenylmethanearsonic acid. -
Q:
What is Benzylarsonic Acid mainly used for?
A: It is used as a flotation collector for cassiterite, wolframite, rare-earth ores and certain metal oxide ores. Its arsonic acid group can bind to mineral surfaces and modify flotation behavior in mineral-processing circuits. -
Q:
Which specifications should be confirmed for flotation use?
A: Confirm assay or active content, inorganic arsenic content, residual chloride or sulfate, particle size and moisture. Industrial collector grades may contain controlled amounts of inorganic salts, so the batch analysis should state the actual active ingredient and impurity profile. -
Q:
How should Benzylarsonic Acid be stored and handled?
A: It is an arsenic-containing compound and must be handled under strict occupational and environmental controls. Store in tightly closed containers in a dry, ventilated area away from food, feed, water sources and incompatible materials, and use full PPE, dust controls, and applicable exposure, spill and disposal controls.
