Flexible Mica Sheets are produced from natural Muscovite mica splittings bonded with polyester or silicone resins. The controlled low binder content assures a throughly cured product in which the binder will not ooze or flow from the mica structure. They possess excellent flexibility and adhesiveness to permit winding or wrapping of the sheets at room temperature without heating. They can be formed or bent readily to any shape and will not become brittle and stiff. They can be applied to unusual configuration without tear.
The dictionary defines mica as 'A class of silicates having a prismatic angle 120o, eminently perfect basal cleavage, affording thin tough laminae or scales, colorless to jet black, transparent to translucent, of widely varying chemical composition, and crystallising in the monoclinic system'. In brief, mica is a generic term applied to a group of a complex aluminosilicate minerals having a sheet or plate like structure with different chemcial compositions and physical properties. All micas from from flat six-sided monoclinical crystals with a remarkable cleavage in the direction of the large surfaces,which permits them to split easily into optically flat films, as thin as one micron in thickness. When split into thin films, they remain tough and elastic even at high temperature. What makes micas so important to command such a unique position ? Because it had been gifted with exceptional values. It possesses some of the most outstanding combination of chemcial, physical, electrical, thermal and mechanical properties which are not found in any other product. Physically: Mica is transparent, optically flat, easily splittable into thin films along its cleavage, colourless in thin sheets, resilient and incompressible.
