Mica Flakes and Powder

India is the biggest producer of Muscovite Sheet Mica in the world. This type of mica is also called Potassium Mica and is the best variety available in the world. It is tough, chemically inert, immune to climatic variations, non- toxic, transparent and water proof. By virtue of these unique qualities, it can be reduced to very small thin particles having diameter to thickness ratio as high as 25 to 1. It can therefore be transformed into coarse, medium and fine varieties of flakes and powder by the process of pulverization and thereby it renders itself to wide commercial applications in these forms.

Mica Flakes is mica scrap ground into sizes ranging from 2 mesh to 30 mesh. This material is prepared mainly by the means of rotary hammer crushing machine in which the mica is literally beaten till such time that the required size is not achieved and the material passes out from graded sieves attached therein.

Mica Powder in various forms is obtained by grinding/breaking mica scrap, which is a slow, costly and extremely complicated process, because of the scrap being tough and having a plate like structure. Meticulous care and precaution has to be taken so that there is no deterioration of its natural brilliance, colour and properties. Parasramka's factories for processing varieties of mica powder are fully equipped with latest different pulverisers.

The House of Parasramka has recently commissioned a customized sieving plant to uphold the tradition of customer satisfaction that it so profoundly propagates. This new plant, built at a substantial cost, has all the features that may be required for production of any type of graded mica powder.
