Polymers are used widely in the mineral processing industry to alter mineral surfaces, often selectively. In spite of this, there remains a gap in our understanding of how polymers interact with mineral surfaces and how their surface structure affects the mineral surface properties. The aim of this project is to fill this gap by performing fundamental research on adsorbed polymer structure and properties, coupled with applied research on real mineral ores from a number of mineral companies. The combination of fundamental and applied research makes this project unique in the study of polymers at mineral interfaces, and will enable us to solve real processing problems through a rational choice of polymers for a given application.

聚合物在矿物加工工业中广泛用于改变矿物表面，通常是选择性的。 尽管如此，我们对聚合物如何与矿物表面相互作用以及它们的表面结构如何影响矿物表面性质的理解仍然存在差距。 该项目的目的是通过对吸附聚合物结构和性质进行基础研究，以及对一些矿业公司的真实的矿石进行应用研究，填补这一空白。 基础研究和应用研究的结合使该项目在矿物界面聚合物的研究中独树一帜，并将使我们能够通过为特定应用合理选择聚合物来解决真实的加工问题。
