Why the demand for mica has decreased?
In recent years, substitutes like plastics and synthetic material which are more effective and cheaper than mica have been found
What is the bond found across the sheets of mica?
Mica is an interesting silicate mineral. The silicate series is: quartz --> mica --> asbestos. Quartz possesses three dimensional Si-O bonds which results in a crystal that is strong in every direction. Consequently, quartz is an exceptionally hard mineral. Mica, on the other hand, only has strong bonds in two dimensions forming sheets. Within the sheets (the strong bonds), the bonding is O-Si(Al)-O. The aluminium causes funny things to happen to the charges on the silicon and oxygen resulting in the formation of cations (negative charge) and anions (positive charge). As such, ionic bonds form. It isn't pure ionic bonding, however. There is also covalent bonding going on too. I am not an expert on crystallography but I suspect the covalent bonding is more important than the ionic bonding in mica because there are more non-metallic atoms than metallic. However, what's for sure is that the bonding is part covalent and part ionic. Between the layers, the bonding is weak (I assume van der Waals forces or something like that) allowing mica to form distinct layers in the 3D structure. If you're interested, asbestos forms fibres in a tetrahedral shape.
Does Mg have more metallic character than Ca?
no it is because metallic character increases down the group

What is the difference between metal paint and ordinary paint on a car?
Just what it says. Fine metal particles, or plastic particles, that make the finish sparkle in the sunlight. Modern metallic paint is called "clear over base" or COB. the metallic base is single pack, over which is applied a 2-pack clear.It is more difficult and time consuming and costs more.
Andre needs to paint the exterior of his shed. He knows that the larger the surface area the more expensive it will be to paint.?
The expense to paint the shed is a function of the shed's surface area.

Why are brass utensils used in the kitchen are coated with tin?
because people think the silvery metallic look seems more expensive.
Are metallic brake pads and carbon brake pads the same?
No, very different. Metallic pads are generally more expensive but much better depending on vehicle. Ceramic pads are even better on most vehicles.
How does acid rain affect cars?
The paint will look like it has splattered raindrops. Its more noticeable on vehicles that have dark or metallic finishes & can not be washed off.
What is more metallic mg or s?
Mg is more metallic.
Red car insurance higher why?
No, it actually isn't higher... The only time a vehicles paint significantly effects the price of Auto Insurance is when you have a "Custom Paint" job and you have selected full coverage. This is because in the event of damage, a custom paint job is typically more expensive to repair than factory paint. White and black automotive paint is generally the least expensive colors of paint.
Where can one paint their car to be orange?
To paint your car orange, there are a couple of things you must know. First of all, you can either paint it orange yourself, or get someone to paint it for you. If you want to paint it yourself, it will take more time, but it will be less expensive. You will have to buy the paint, but you will not have to pay for labor times, which are expensive. If you want to paint it yourself, simply go to your local paint shop and ask for car paint in the color orange, then look up on Google for specifics on how to paint a car. If you want to get someone to paint it for you, simply search in the Yellow Pages, or online, for an automobile paint shop.
What is hammered paint?
Hammer paint (or hammered paint) is a special lacquer with a surface that looks like hammered metal when dried.The slightly iridescent areas are caused by the different orientation of very small shiny particles which are suspended in the lacquer. These particles are often made of the mineral mica. Mica is chemically inactive and very resistant. Alternatively, aluminium or bronze powder may be used. To make the "hammered" effect more pronounced, a small percentage of silicone oil may be added directly before application.Hammer paint is often used to beautify technical apparatus and not so commonly as a protective coating. The optical advantage of hammer paint is that surfaces look acceptable even if the underlying surface is not flat and smooth. To get a regular paint to look smooth the surface would have to be prepared first, for example by spackling, sanding, grinding or polishing. With hammer paint, this step can be omitted. Some hammer paints (e.g. by Hammerite) are formulated to be usable directly on rusted steel without surface preparation other than brushing to remove the loose rust.Beyond that, the resistance of the mica improves the durability of the paint job. The mica reduces aging by protecting the underlying binders from UV radiation. The mica also makes hammer paint relatively hard and scratch resistant.
What is better paintball or airsoft?
Air soft is better in that it is much more realistic, cheaper, and can be played in a larger variety of environments (you can exactly play paint ball in your neighborhood, can you?). However, paint ball allows for fairer game play. This can be solved by buying paint ball BB's (paint balls in BB form) which are more expensive but less expensive then real paint balls. Basically, air soft is better if you are playing with honest friends or you don't have a paint ball arena in your backyard, but if you're playing with large teams or for competition and you have the money, paint ball is the way to go.
