Maflakes echisikigo e mica imhando yezvicherwa zvisiri zvesimbi uye ane zvikamu zvakasiyana-siyana, pakati pazvo zvinonyanya kuva SiO2, zvirimo zvinowanzova 49%, uye zvirimo zveAl2O3 zvinenge 30%. Mica yechisikigo ine kusimba kwakanaka uye kusimba. Kudzivirira kupisa, kuramba kupisa kwakanyanya, kuramba acid nealkali, kuramba ngura, kunamira kwakasimba nezvimwe zvinhu, chinhu chakanaka kwazvo chinowedzera. Inoshandiswa zvakanyanya mumidziyo yemagetsi, tsvimbo dzewelding, rabha, mapurasitiki, bepa, pendi, machira, pigments, ceramics, cosmetics, zvinhu zvitsva zvekuvaka nedzimwe nzvimbo, uye ine mashandisirwo akasiyana-siyana. Nekukura kuri kuramba kuchiita sainzi netekinoroji, vanhu vakavhura minda mitsva yekushandisa.

Hunhu uye zvikamu zvikuru zvemakemikari zve natural mica: makristaro emuscovite maplates ane hexagonal nema columns, majoini acho akati sandara, uye ma aggregates akaita seflake kana kuti mavanga, saka inonzi fragmented natural mica.

Maflakes echisikigo e mica anogona kushandiswa mu: zvinowedzerwa pakuputira, machira ekuvaka, ma terrazzo aggregates, pendi dzematombo chaiwo, machira ejecha ane mavara, nezvimwewo.

Pepa rema mica rechisikigo chinhu chekushongedza chine mavara akasimba, chinodzivisa mvura uye chinotevedzera, uye chinodzivisa kutonhora zvakanyanya uye chinogona kushandiswa pazvinhu zvataurwa pamusoro apa.
