  2. Mica - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mica

    Sheet mica is a versatile and durable material widely used in electrical and thermal insulation applications. It exhibits excellent electrical properties, heat resistance, and chemical stability. Technical grade sheet mica is used in electrical components, electronics, atomic force microscopy and as window sheets.

  3. Biotite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biotite

    Biotite is a common group of phyllosilicate minerals within the mica group, with the approximate chemical formula K(Mg,Fe) 3 AlSi 3 O 10 (F,OH) 2.It is primarily a solid-solution series between the iron-endmember annite, and the magnesium-endmember phlogopite; more aluminous end-members include siderophyllite and eastonite.

  4. Muscovite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscovite

    The apical oxygen anions of the outer T sheets face inwards and are shared by the octahedral sheet, binding the sheets firmly together. The relatively strong binding between oxygen anions and aluminium and silicon cations within a layer, compared with the weaker binding of potassium cations between layers, gives muscovite its perfect basal ...

  5. Silicate mineral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicate_mineral

    Phyllosilicates (from Greek φύλλον phýllon 'leaf'), or sheet silicates, form parallel sheets of silicate tetrahedrums with Si 2 O 5 or a 2:5 ratio. The Nickel–Strunz classification is 09.E. All phyllosilicate minerals are hydrated, with either water or hydroxyl groups attached. Kaolinite. Examples include: Serpentine subgroup

  6. Silver mica capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_mica_capacitor

    In 1920 Dubilier developed a capacitor consisting of a flaked sheet of mica coated on both sides with silver. He formed the Dubilier Condenser Company to manufacture them. Ceramic capacitors were also used in the 1920s due to a shortage of mica, but by the 1950s silver mica had become the capacitor of choice for small-value RF applications. [1]

  7. Lepidolite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lepidolite

    Lepidolite is a lilac-gray or rose-colored member of the mica group of minerals with chemical formula K(Li,Al) 3 (Al,Si,Rb) 4 O 10 (F,OH) 2. [2] [3] It is the most abundant lithium-bearing mineral [4] and is a secondary source of this metal.

  8. Stopping power (particle radiation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stopping_power_(particle...

    Electronic stopping refers to the slowing down of a projectile ion due to the inelastic collisions between bound electrons in the medium and the ion moving through it. The term inelastic is used to signify that energy is lost during the process (the collisions may result both in excitations of bound electrons of the medium, and in excitations of the electron cloud of the ion as well).

  9. Process flowsheeting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flowsheeting

    Process flowsheeting is the use of computer aids to perform steady-state heat and mass balancing, sizing and costing calculations for a chemical process. It is an essential and core component of process design. The process design effort may be split into three basic steps Synthesis; Analysis and; Optimization.
