Mykroy / Mycalex Sheets
Polymer Plastics manufactures and supplies premium-quality Mykroy / Mycalex Sheets designed for applications requiring superior electrical insulation, thermal stability, and precision machining capabilities. Mykroy and Mycalex are glass-bonded mica composite materials that combine the excellent dielectric properties of mica with the strength and machinability of engineered composite materials.
Mykroy / Mycalex Sheets provide outstanding electrical insulation performance and exceptional arc resistance, making them suitable for critical electrical and electronic applications where reliability and safety are essential. The material maintains excellent dielectric properties even under elevated temperatures and demanding operating conditions.
