Mica Series for Inks

Mica functions as a substrate for pearlescent and interference pigments, enabling pearlescent highlights, metallic visual depth, and controlled sheen effects in specialty and decorative inks.

Wet grinding by frictional delamination retains smooth basal surfaces, producing low grit, high gloss control, and better transparency essential for effect and pearlescent ink applications.

Yes, mica's high aspect ratio platelet structure prevents pigment agglomeration, stabilizes viscosity, and maintains uniform color depth even under the high-shear conditions of modern presses.

Yes, mica's extreme thermal stability (resisting up to 1,000°C) makes it particularly valuable for heatset web offset inks, preventing film blistering and maintaining dimensional stability.
