Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Micronised Mica in paints & coatings applications

Mica platelets overlap to form a continuous mineral shield inside the paint film, significantly increasing film durability and helping paint resist shearing, cracking, chalking, peeling, moisture, chemicals, and salinity.

Wet-ground high-aspect-ratio mica (AR Mica T) enables pearlescent and sheen effects in specialty architectural and decorative coatings, providing metallic visual depth and controlled sheen enhancement.

Wet grinding by controlled delamination preserves smooth basal surfaces, maintains high aspect ratio, and produces low grit particles essential for superior barrier performance and optical effect applications.

Yes, mica's high aspect ratio platelet structure contributes to thixotropy, prevents pigment agglomeration, stabilizes viscosity, and maintains uniform film appearance in both high and low PVC systems.

Yes, mica's extreme UV and thermal stability, along with its superior barrier properties, make it particularly valuable for exterior architectural emulsions and industrial protective coatings exposed to harsh conditions.
