A novel compressive Phlogopite mica seal was developed that showed superior thermal cycle stability with very low leak rates at 800 degrees C. A commercially available Phlogopite mica paper was infiltrated with a wetting or melt-forming agent, and tested in a hybrid form during thermal cycling. The results of H3BO3-infiltrated mica showed a continued decrease in leak rates over thermal cycling, and very low rates (
