CLIRIK offers a comprehensive range of mica crushing and grinding systems. Our technology is designed to optimize your production efficiency, significantly reduce specific energy consumption, and meet the most stringent manufacturing requirements for various mica-based products.

Material Introduction
Mica represents a group of silicate minerals characterized by a layered structure that allows them to be split into exceptionally thin, flexible, and tough sheets. With a Mohs hardness of 2–4, mica is prized for its high dielectric strength, thermal stability, and excellent chemical resistance. It occurs naturally in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. Its unique ability to remain stable when exposed to electricity, light, and moisture makes it an indispensable insulation material in modern technology.

Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC)
Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) is produced by the mechanical pulverization of natural minerals like limestone or marble. Since it involves no chemical transformation, it retains the mineral’s original stability but features an irregular, fragmented structure.

Key Properties: High density, low oil absorption, and excellent flowability.

Industrial Value: Used as a “functional filler” in plastics, rubber, and coatings. It increases volume and hardness while allowing high loading levels to significantly reduce production costs.

Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC)
Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC), or light calcium carbonate, is a synthetic compound produced through a chemical carbonation process. By calcining limestone and reacting it with CO₂, manufacturers can precisely control the particle morphology to create specific shapes like spindles, spheres, or needles.

Key Properties: Ultra-high whiteness, narrow particle size distribution, and high sedimentation volume.

Industrial Value: Its microporous structure and large specific surface area make it ideal for high-end paper, specialized paints, and pharmaceuticals requiring reinforcement and superior brightness.

Clirik Total Grinding Solutions
CLIRIK offers a comprehensive range of mica crushing and grinding systems. Our technology is designed to optimize your production efficiency, significantly reduce specific energy consumption, and meet the most stringent manufacturing requirements for various mica-based products.

Industrial Applications
1
325 – 600 Mesh (D97: 45-25μm)
Primarily used in building materials like joint compounds, asphalt roofings, and fire-resistant coatings. The plate-like structure of mica particles effectively prevents surface cracking, enhances structural integrity, and improves the weather resistance of exterior coatings.
2
800 – 1250 Mesh (D97: 18-10μm)
Applied in the rubber and plastic industries as a high-performance reinforcement filler. It significantly increases the heat distortion temperature and dimensional stability of molded parts. It is also used in oil drilling as a lost circulation material and in welding rod coatings to improve arc stability and flux performance.
3
1500 – 2500 Mesh (D97: 10-5μm)
Premium grade for the production of pearlescent pigments and high-end cosmetics. At this ultra-fine level, mica provides a unique metallic or silky luster and superior skin adhesion. It is also used in automotive coatings to provide a brilliant “shimmer” effect while offering ultraviolet protection.
4
3000 Mesh + (D97: ≤5μm)
Specialized for advanced electronics, high-performance thermal pads, and heavy-duty anti-corrosion paints. The extremely fine flakes form a dense barrier layer that effectively blocks moisture, chemicals, and UV radiation, ensuring long-term insulation and protection for precision components.

Core Processing Advantages

Optimizing Particle Distribution with CLIRIK Technology:
When processing mica, CLIRIK’s grinding systems utilize specialized shear and compression forces to achieve superior results. We focus on reducing energy consumption while ensuring a uniform particle size distribution (PSD).

Customized Powder Engineering:
We provide tailor-made solutions matching international standards for aspect ratio and fineness across the pearlescent pigments, automotive plastics, and high-performance electronics industries.

Luster & Purity Protection:
To preserve mica’s natural shimmer and dielectric properties, our core components feature top-tier wear-resistant coatings. This effectively prevents iron contamination, ensuring the final mica product maintains its premium brightness and stays free from metallic impurities that could compromise electrical insulation.

Intelligent Particle Control:
Our modular mill design and intelligent control systems strictly monitor D97 levels, ensuring high batch-to-batch consistency.

24/7 Rapid Response Maintenance:
We minimize unplanned downtime through our responsive global after-sales network and spare parts supply, providing technical support to keep your production lines running at peak performance.
