mica

• Минерал, состоящий из водных силикатов алюминия или калия, кристаллизующийся в формах, позволяющих идеальное расщепление на очень тонкие листы, используемый в качестве диэлектрика благодаря своему электрическому сопротивлению.

A mineral consisting of hydrous silicates of aluminum or potassium that crystallizes in forms allowing perfect cleavage into very thin leaves, used as a dielectric due to its electrical resistance.

   • Mica is commonly used in electrical capacitors due to its insulating properties.
   • The rock contained large flakes of mica that sparkled in the sunlight.
   • Geologists identified the mineral as muscovite, a type of mica.
