Mica Paper


What is Mica Paper? Mica paper is a flexible, thin insulating material made from mica minerals (natural or synthetic) through processes of grinding, pulping, and sheet-forming. It retains mica’s inherent properties—excellent electrical insulation, heat resistance, and chemical stability—while offering versatility for cutting, laminating, and wrapping in industrial applications. Available in various types, each tailored to specific temperature ranges and performance needs, mica paper is a cornerstone of insulation systems in electrical, automotive, and high-heat industries. Phlogopite Mica Paper Made from hydraulically crushed natural phlogopite, it can withstand high temperatures up to 800-1000 degrees Celsius and is suitable for making fire-resistant mica tapes and heat-resistant mica plates. Synthetic Mica Paper Mica paper made from synthetic mica sheets maximizes the retention of the excellent high-temperature resistance and electrical insulation properties of synthetic mica. The high temperature resistance level can reach 1200 ℃, suitable for making synthetic mica ceramic mica tapes, and can also be used to make other mica insulation products.

    Why Mica Paper?

    Across all types, mica paper delivers unmatched “insulation + heat resistance” duality, outperforming materials like fiberglass or plastic films in harsh environments. Its flexibility allows use in tight spaces (e.g., coil windings, furnace linings), while its compatibility with adhesives and resins enables integration into composite insulation systems. Choosing the right type depends on temperature requirements, voltage levels, and cost—whether for everyday electrical devices or extreme aerospace conditions, mica paper offers a tailored solution.
