Micronised Mica

Owing to our ability and well-known name, We are Exporting, Supplying and Trading a selective extent of Micronised Muscovite Mica in Kolkata that is extensively used as a pigment extender in various paints and coatings. It is a tough, flexible and transparent mineral that can be ground to less than a micron sieve mesh,

It is an anti-friction, anti-fouling, anti-settling, anti-corrisive, anti-tarmish and anti-siege agent. The overlaping layers of mica platelets form a tough shield that improves paint integrity and durability.

Mica acts as a reinforcing pigment to reduce cracking, peeling and checking in the dry film and prevents shrinkage and sheering of the paint. When a paint starts to fall, mica holds it together sufficiently to keep it away from cissing, curtaining and prevents microscopic ruptures in the paint films.

Mica particles brighten the tone of the coloured pigments, at the same time, transmit and reflect light resulting in proven decorative effects and design. It increases the gloss of a paint more effectively than spherical or irregularly shaped filler particles of an equivalent size product. Mica also optimize the effect of other pigments by ensuring that the pigment particles are evently spaced in the dried paint film.
