Notes

CD-3200 is a water ground muscovite mica that has optimum delamination and high purity. Our patented process produces a mica product that gives optimum performance in a variety of applications. In addition to excellent color, CD-3200 creates a functional pigment that is very desirable where low bulk density, fineness, high aspect ratio, and excellent coverage are required.

Performance Characteristics

The performance characteristics that make
CD-3200 an acceptable cost effective additive for these markets are:
Excellent color
Ease of dispersion
Increased coverage
Chemical inertness
Superior barrier properties
High temperature stability
Superior dielectric properties
Superior reinforcement properties

Mean Particle Size, microns 15 - 25 18
Sieve Analysis, % retained
+100 mesh Trace Trace
+200 mesh 1.0 max. 0.8
+325 mesh 4 - 12 6
Bulk Density (Colgate method) 8 – 14 12
Moisture Loss, 100C º, % <0.5
Color, L value >90

Mineral Muscovite mica
Chemical Composition Potassium aluminum silicate
