Industry FAQ

Common Questions Across All Applications

General questions applicable to multiple industries. For industry-specific questions, visit each application page.

Muscovite (white mica) excels at electrical insulation (150-200 kV/mm dielectric) for applications up to 500-600°C — ideal for EV motors, consumer appliances, precision electronics. Phlogopite (gold/dark mica) handles higher temperatures (700-1000°C) with MgO content — best for metallurgy, ladles, furnaces, and railway applications. Synthetic mica delivers ultra-pure performance with no iron oxide impurities — required for nuclear cables (IEEE 383), aerospace, and semiconductor manufacturing.
Mica tape — flexible wrapping for motor windings, cable construction, busbar insulation. Easy installation, conforms to shapes. Mica plate/board — rigid structural component for battery module barriers, furnace linings, switchgear insulation. High mechanical strength. Mica paper — thin base material for composite laminates, mass production. Uniform thickness. Mica components — CNC/laser/water-jet machined custom parts for precision module-level protection. All four forms available from our factory.
