The role of organic reagents (flocculant and flotation collectors) and impurity (lubricating oil) in zinc deposition and in product quality are described in this paper. In the presence of a flotation collector for zinc and a lubricating oil, characterized by polar amine and non-polar alkyl groups, respectively, by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, an inhibition of the metal nucleation process was observed, which was found to be particularly significant for electrolyte contaminated with the amine-containing compound. The current efficiency of zinc electrowinning was negatively affected due to this inhibition, highlighting the critical nature of managing impurities and organic additives in zinc extraction processes.
