Manufacturers and distributors of finest Muscovite Mica and Phlogopite mica from Lanka.
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.
hlogopite crystals can be tabular with a pseudohexagonal shape, or they can be barrel-shaped prisms with a pseudohexagonal cross-section. Although phlogopite is a monoclinic mineral, the c-axis is so gently inclined that it would be easy to think that phlogopite is hexagonal.
Phlogopite has many properties that make it valuable in manufacturing. It can be cleaved into thin sheets that can serve as electronics boards. These are stiff but flexible, and they can easily be cut to shape, punched, or drilled. Phlogopite is heat resistant, does not transmit electricity, and is a poor conductor of heat.
