MICA
SCRAP : Mica Scrap is the nomenclature given to the irregular lumps of
mica as received from the mines having a area between ½" and 1 ½"
sq. This type of mica is mainly exported to plants all over the world to be
made into a pulp used for the manufacturing of mica paper and reconstituted
mica plates. Domestically, it is used as a raw material for the manufacture
of mica flakes and powder.
Mica Flakes
Specification Muscovite Ruby Natural Processed Mica Flakes
Daruka Mica Natural Flakes are made out of selected Mica Scrap, Dried,
Screened & Sheared.
- Process: First the selected mica scrap is dried to avoid
any humidity.
Secondly mica scrap is screened to avoid dust.
Thirdly all the foreign particles like biotite (black Mica),
quartz, straw, bamboo (organic & inorganic materials) are
removed by hand picking. Here we again screen the material.
Now the material is ready to sheared (in grinding machine).
Grinded material is then directly through blower sucked & blown
in a round screen which is having blower to separate dust from the
grinded material & the 8 mesh screen size to bring down the
2-8mesh NATURAL MUSCOVITE RUBY MICA FLAKES.

In this case, mica scrap & waste are pulverized by mechanical
grinders such as high speed hammer, rod, attrition, mills or cage
distintefrators which reduce them to flakes and powder of different
mesh sized ranging from 2 to 300 mesh. These flakes and powder are
classified into various mesh sizes with the help of sieve
classifiers.
a) Coarse Mica Flakes: Plus 6 mesh, having a bulk density
of 0.17kg/ltr. Have high percentage of relatively large flakes for
sealing large openings.
b) Medium coarse mica flakes: Plus 10 mesh having a bulk
density of 0.18kg/ltr. Area generally used to combat mild
circulation losses in porous information
c) Fine Mica flakes: Plus 20 mesh having a bulk density of
0.20 kg/ltr are particularly used when a sealing agent is needed
small enough to allow the mud to pass through a shaker screen
without interfering with the operation.
- Uses: Natural muscovite mica flakes are used as raw mica
material for regrinding, micronizing, sheet and pulp manufacturing
for mica paper. Small sized of mica flakes are required for roofing
felt industries, decorative purpose & mica board manufacturing
to insulate the wall of houses for preventing noise, heat &
ultra violet rays.
- Packing: It depends up to the customer. Generally it's
packed in HDP, jute or paper bag of 10,25, 50kgs.
- Delivery: Minimum one 20' T.E.U. (full container load of
20 ton)
- Inspection: Can be carried out by the buyer of buyers
nominated independent inspection agency before shipment at our
works, i.e. P.O. Jhumritelaiya- 825 409, Bihar, INDIA.
- Capacity: In our machine we can produce 10 tons per duly
screened.
