What are the uses of mica and asbestos?

Answer:

The main use of industrial insulation and its heat resistance, acid and alkali resistance, and compressive strength and exfoliation of insulating material is used as electrical equipment and electrical equipment; secondly for furnace window and machinery manufacturing steam boiler, smelting furnace of the parts. Mica and mica powder can be processed into mica paper, and can also be used instead of mica sheet to produce insulating materials with low cost and even thickness.
Superfine mica powder can be used as functional fillers such as plastics, coatings, paints and rubber to improve its mechanical strength, toughness, adhesion, aging resistance and corrosion resistance. In addition, corrosion, elasticity, toughness and sliding resistance and noise, low coefficient of thermal expansion properties such as high electrical insulation, and launched the first two characteristics of sheet surface smooth, diameter thickness ratio, regular shape, strong adhesion.
The Muscovite is the most used in industry, and the second is gold mica. It is widely used in building material industry, fire fighting industry, fire extinguishing agent, electric welding rod, plastic, electric insulation, paper making, asphalt paper, rubber, pearlescent pigment and other chemical industry.
