Muscovite Mica (Sheet, Flakes, Powder)

Introduction of Mica:

Mica is a kind of rock-forming minerals. Its form is plate-like or flaky. The color is variable with the differences of chemical composition. Mainly Fe content increase will make the color be darker. The characteristics of Mica contains: insulation, high temperature resistant, lustrous appearance, stable physical and chemical property, good heat insulation, excellent elasticity and high toughness etc. Muscovite mica is widely used in industrial products, building materials industries, fire-fighting industries, fire extinguishing agent, electric welding rods, plastics, electric insulation, paper-making, asphalt paper, rubber, pearl pigment etc.
