Mica Solutions

Mica is a natural mineral known for its ability to easily disintegrate into thin, flexible sheets. Mica belongs to a group of minerals with similar physical and chemical properties.

Composition: mica is a group of silicates with a complex chemical structure. The most common types of mica are muscovite (white mica) and biotite (black mica).

Mica is often used in insulations due to its exceptional insulating properties, especially in electrical and thermal insulation. Mica insulation is widely used in a variety of industries, including electrical engineering and electronics manufacturing.

Here is some key information about mica insulation:

Insulating properties::
- o Electrical:: Mica is an excellent electrical insulator, meaning that it does not conduct electricity. This is especially beneficial for components and devices that must operate at high voltages.
- o Thermal:: Mica has high thermal resistance, meaning it can withstand high temperatures without degradation. That’s why it is often used in areas where there is a lot of heat, such as transformers and heating equipment..
Applications::
- o Transformers: In transformers, mica is often used as an insulator between windings.
- o Electric motors: : Mica can be used to insulate coils in electric motors..
- o High-temperature ovens: Because of its resistance to high temperatures, mica is an ideal material for insulation in ovens.
- o Electronics:: Mica is also used as insulation pads in some electronic components.
Mica insulation formats:
- o Plates and sheets: Mica is available in the form of plates or sheets that can be customized for a specific application..
- o Tapes: Mica is also available as insulation tapes.
- o Tubes and rollers: In some applications, mica can be molded into tubes or rolls.
Variants:: There are different types of mica used in insulation, such as muscovite and phlogopite mica, each with different properties and applications.
Specialized applications: Thanks to its unique properties, mica is also used in specialized applications such as fireproofing or insulation in rockets and other advanced technologies.

In summary, mica insulation is irreplaceable in many industrial applications where high thermal and electrical resistance is required. Its versatility and exceptional properties make it one of the most important insulation materials on the market.

Types of Mica / Mikanite

Typ HP-5/F-2 i M-2 wg PN-EN 60371-3-3

Micanite is an electrical insulating material obtained by pressing muscovite (M) or phlogopite (F) mica paper coated with silicone resin at an elevated temperature.

Micanite of the HP-5 and M-2 types is designed for insulating electrical heating elements. During use, the silicone resin can be completely removed giving a material that requires support but can withstand temperatures up to 500oC when using muscovite mica paper (Type M-2) or up to 700oC when using phlogopite mica paper (Type HP-5/F-2).

Standard plate sizes: 950mm x 950m

Thicknesses produced: from 0.3mm to 10mm

dielectric strength of 20 kV/mm
mica content over 85%
density 2,2±0,3 g/cm3

Typ PMS wg PN-EN 60371

MIKANIT PMS is an electrical insulating material obtained by pressing at an elevated temperature mica paper saturated with silicone resin and reinforced with glass fabric. Flexible micanite reinforced with glass fabric meets the requirements: PN-EN 60371

Glass fabric-reinforced flexible micanite is designed for insulating cylindrical-shaped components in electrical equipment such as induction furnaces. During use, the silicone resin can be completely removed giving a material that requires support, but can withstand temperatures up to 700°C.

Standard plate sizes: 950mm x 950m

Thicknesses produced: from 0.3mm to 1mm

Key technical parameters:

nominal grammage 900 g/m2
dielectric strength 20 kV/mm
mica content over 75%
resin content 15%
density 2,0 g/cm3
