Chemical: Mica is a hydrous silicate of aluminum, which contains sodium fluoride, magnesium, lithium, iron, and potassium. It is static to the action of water, alkalies, bases, oil, conventional solvents, and acids (expect concentrated sulfur and hydrofluoric) It remains exactly same in any atmospheric action.
Thermal: Mica can resist temperatures of up to 1000 degrees Celsius to 1832 Fahrenheit. Additionally, it is fireproof, infusible, incombustible, and non-flammable. However, this is only based on the variety or type of Mica you are using.
