Phlogopite Flakes Coarse

Gold Phlogopite Mica Flakes and Powder

Phlogopite is a yellow, greenish, or reddish-brown member of the mica family of phyllosilicates. It is also known as magnesium mica or amber mica.

Calcined golden mica is dehydrated mica with glass luster to semi-metallic luster, cleavage surface presents pearl luster, thin flakes have elasticity. More of a medium than a paint, these colors create a shimmering faceted finish from mica particles suspended in a gloss acrylic medium.

  • High insulating strength and large electrical resistance.
  • Low electrolyte loss.
  • Good arc-resistance and corona resistance.
  • High mechanical strength.
  • Resistant to high temperature and dramatic temperature changes.
  • Resistant to acid and alkali
