CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF THE MINERAL MICA Chemical Composition: The general formula for mica group minerals is XY Z O (OH, F) : X: Can be K, Na, Ba, Ca, Cs, (HO), or (NH). Y: Includes Al, Mg, Fe, Li, Cr, Mn, V, and Zn. Z: Comprises Si, Al, Fe, Be, and Ti. The chemical properties of mica minerals vary depending on the specific type of mica. However, all micas are silica (SiO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), and potassium oxide (K2O). Some micas may contain other elements, such as iron oxide (Fe2O3) and magnesium oxide (MgO). The following table shows the chemical composition of some common mica minerals: Mica mineral SiO2 Al2O3 K2O Fe2O3 MgO Muscovite 45.57 33.1 9.87 0 0 Biotite 47.7 30.9 3 10 3 Phlogopite 47.5 31 3 0 15 Of the 28 known species of mica, six are common rock-forming minerals: Muscovite: The common light-colored mica. Biotite: Typically black or nearly black. Phlogopite: Typically brown. Paragonite: Macroscopically indistinguishable from muscovite. Lepidolite: Generally pinkish to lilac; occurs in lithium-bearing pegmatites. Glauconite: A green species found sporadically in marine sedimentary sequences.
description: Mica powder is a kind of non-metallic mineral, which contains many kinds of components, including Sio2 and Al2o3. Mica powder has good elasticity and toughness. Insulation, high temperature, acid and alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, strong adhesion and other characteristics, it is a good additive. It is widely used in electrical appliances, welding electrodes, rubber, plastics, paper, paint, paint, pigment, ceramics, cosmetics, new building materials and other industries, with a wide range of applications. With the continuous development of science and technology, people have opened up new application areas. Mica Types: mica powder,mica flake. Production Technology Of Mica: dry mica, wet mica, calcined mica , aynthetic mica. using:coating, rubber, plastic, paper making, decorative cosmetics, lubricant and so on.
Mica is a group of silicate minerals commonly used in various industries, including cosmetics and skincare products. Our high-quality, ethically sourced mica offers customizable grades and a radiant shimmer, perfect for enhancing cosmetics, skincare products, and industrial applications, making it an ideal choice for brands seeking both performance and sustainability.
Mica sheet is made of high-quality Muscovite paper, phlogopite paper or synthetic mica paper as the base material,high-temperature silicone resin as the adhesive, baked and pressed at high temperature. Hard mica board is specially developed and designed to meet the characteristic requirements of high temperature insulation and electrical insulation. It is mainly used in the following industries: 1.Household appliances industry (including oven, toaster, hair dryer, electric kettle, electric iron, air heater, curler, electricwire heater, wallboard heater, etc.) 2.Metallurgical Industry (electric frequency furnace, industrial frequency furnace, electric arc furnace, etc.) 3.Chemical industry and medical equipment industry, as heating bracket, gasket, partition, etc.
Mica is a shiny silicate mineral with a layered structure. The mica group of sheet silicate (phyllosilicate) minerals includes several closely related materials with nearly perfect basal cleavage. All these materials are monoclinic, with a tendency towards pseudohexagonal crystals; they are also similar in chemical composition. Where is it found Mica is widely distributed and it occurs in igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary regimes. It is typically mined from graniticpegmatite. Apart from being fire-proof, Mica has the following strengths: High dielectric strength. Endurance. Uniform dielectric constant. Low dielectric loss (or High Q). High electric resistivity. Superior insulating properties. Quality Aspect: Along with our other products, production of Mica has accredited us unique in the market. Our product holds good reputation in the production of Mica Sheet, Foundry Chemicals and Welding Electrodes. Fields Of Usage: Paints. Welding electrodes. Foundry Fluxes. Oil Well drilling. Cables & Wires. Metal Explosives. Paper. Packing: The standard packing units are 50 kg HDPE Bags, 1000 Kg and 1350 Kg jumbo bags. However, we can also make the packing units as per customer requirements.
MICA SCRAP / MICA CHIPS We are one of the leading manufactures and suppliers of mica scrap in India which is widely used for various industrial purposes. Irregular clumps of raw mica obtained from mines are called mica scrap, having an area between 1/2" and 1 1/2". We supply mica scraps which are substantially free from mineral impurities, non mineral impurities and other foreign inclusions. These are obtained from systematic and automated chemical refining processes. Our mica scrap is widely used in the manufacture of mica paper, mica plates, mica flakes and mica powder. We mainly export high quality scrap by removing dust, stone and other particles to plants all over the world. Mica Scraps can be classified into different categories based upon temperature, size, and purity requirements. They are available in Muscovite, Phlogopite and Biotite. Several sizes are available like -1/6" & up, 1/3" & up, 1/2"& up, 3/4" & up, 1" & up. White mica is well known for its shine and color, well suited for the production of paper and powder. This white mica scrap is good for calcinations as it cannot sustain its properties at a temperature of 800-900 degree Celsius." Features of Mica Scrap / Mica Chips High quality and strength These scraps are extracted from authentic mines Free from contamination Contains good chemical and physical properties Obtained from automated chemical and refining process Smooth, soft and cost effective Applications of Mica Scrap / Mica Chips Mine scrap is primarily used as raw material for ground mica for industrial uses such as paints electrodes etc and for manufacturing of mica paper or reconstituted mica as a basic raw material. Used in the manufacture of Mica Powder, Flakes, Paper. Lubricants and roofing materials. Used as filler in rubber Plants Welding Electrodes, Cables and Wires. Acoustical Plaster.
We are engaged in offering a wide range of mica shields and mica gaskets which is widely used in the protection of gauge glasses. They protect these gauge glasses under high pressure situations and for flexible control of water and other fluids. These shields are produced using high quality muscovite natural mica taken from our mines and the raw materials are punched and cut with high accuracy for perfect dimension and thickness. Our mica shields and gaskets provide good strength, service life for glasses and can monitor the degree of combustion in blast furnaces in various steam boilers. With the help of high optimum visibility clear readings of water or steam in boiler drums can be observed safely. Mica gaskets can be used as good thermal insulation in electronic components and are applicable up to instead of 1800�?�°F use temp in C. (i.e. 983C). Our mica shields and mica gaskets are well known for their properties like good tensile and bending strength, resistance against corrosion and low heat conductivity. Features of Mica Shields & Mica Gaskets Increases the service life of sight glasses. Hard, flat and transparent. Free from air inclusions. High optimum visibility Applications of Mica Shields & Mica Gaskets They provide clear vision of liquid levels in turbines, flow indicators, boilers and heaters. They are also used in gas turbines and exhaust pipes. Used in the protection of gauge glasses
