A microscopic mechanism study of the effect of binary surfactants on the flotation of Wiser bituminous coal

Abstract Investigating surfactant effects on the floatability of Wiser bituminous coal holds significant importance in improving coal cleanliness and utilization value. Using density functional theory and molecular dynamics simulation methods, this study constructed models of Wiser bituminous coal a...
