This International Standard specifies the requirements for different types of moulding micanite. They are composed of mica splittings or mica paper, with or without rein-forcement,bonded with a suitable binder and may be supplied as sheets or rolls. Moulding micanites with B-stage resins are of a consistency ranging from rigid to soft. All types are mouldable when heated. This specification covers material having a nominal thickness from 0,10 mm to 7 mm. Materials which conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However, the selection of a material for a specific application should be based on the actual requirements necessary for adequate performance in that application and not based on this specification alone.
