Uses of Phlogopite
Phlogopite and muscovite are the only two mica minerals that are used commercially. Phlogopite is used less often than muscovite because it is less available and because its brown color is
undesirable for some uses. Much phlogopite is used in plastic composite body parts for automobiles. Phlogopite increases the stiffness of the plastic, provides greater dimensional stability, and
reduces distortion upon temperature change.
Ground phlogopite is used as a substitute for asbestos in automobile brake linings and clutch plates. It is added to industrial coatings used to increase strength, increase stiffness, and to
improve resistance to heat, chemicals and ultraviolet rays. It is an additive that increases the strength of epoxies, nylons, and polyesters.
