At the heart of the mica trade lies the expertise and commitment to quality that distinguishes reputable exporters from the rest. These exporters possess an intimate knowledge of the geographical regions where mica is abundantly available, such as India, Brazil, and Madagascar. Their expertise extends to identifying high-quality deposits, investing in sustainable extraction methods, and adhering to international trade regulations, thereby showcasing their authority in the field. This ensures that the mica supplied meets the rigorous standards demanded by international buyers, from the electronics industry leveraging mica’s thermal and electrical insulation properties, to the cosmetic industry valuing its natural shimmer.
Huajing mica cosmetic grade mica powder has been loved by customers since it entered the market, and has a general response, excellent quality, stable quality and high reputation.
In 2022, Lingshou Huajing Mica Co., Ltd. launched cosmetic grade mica powder. The flake structure of mica powder can lock the water on the surface of the skin, forming a protective film to effectively prevent water loss. Its unique gloss and reflection effect add natural and charming luster to the skin, and mica powder also has a certain sunscreen effect. To a certain extent, it can reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays on the skin, protect the skin from the external environment, and prevent sunburn.

In addition, lepidolite and ferrolepidolite can also be used as mineral raw materials for extracting lithium.
In the world of coatings and finishes, epoxy pearl pigments have emerged as a transformative ingredient that enhances aesthetic appeal and performance. These pigments are finely milled particles that exhibit unique iridescent effects, offering a glossy, shimmering look that can elevate the visual quality of various surfaces. As industries continue to seek innovative ways to improve product appearance and durability, epoxy pearl pigments stand out as a versatile solution.
It is an indispensable and important raw material in the fields of electric heating equipment, wire and cable, aerospace and so on.
Take pearlescent pigments as an example, pearlescent pigments are a class of pigments with pearl luster, which are deposited on the substrate (generally natural mica, synthetic mica, glass sheet and other sheet-like materials) above a layer or alternately deposited multiple layers of metal oxides or non-metallic oxides and formed a flat sandwich body with a structure similar to sandwich. Due to the difference in refractive index between the substrate and the oxide deposited on its surface and each oxide, when the light shines on the surface of the pearlescent pigment, the incident light will be refracted and reflected at the interface of each layer of the pearlescent pigment, and the color of the pearlescent pigment that people see is the result of the superposition of light after multiple refractions and reflections of the light, that is, the interference phenomenon of light.
As with any natural resource, the extraction and use of muscovite come with environmental and societal considerations. It is essential to adopt sustainable mining practices that minimize environmental degradation and ensure the well-being of local communities.
The mica powder of HUAJING has the advantage of extremely narrow particle size, and the particle size specifications are complete, such as: 2000 mesh, 1250 mesh, 800 mesh, 400 mesh, 120 mesh, etc. The skin feeling is exquisite.

Synthetic 120 mesh :large particle size, with pearl shining effect.
Later, with the development of science and technology, people gradually realized that mica minerals have high insulation, high temperature resistance, strong acid and alkali resistance, and mica also began to enter building materials, fire, plastics, paper, rubber, pearlite pigments and other industries. These are mainly Muscovite and phlogopite.
2. Construction Materials Mica chips are frequently incorporated into construction materials, particularly in the production of paints, plasters, and asphalt. In paints, mica serves as a pigment extender, enhancing durability and weather resistance. Its inclusion in plasters and concrete improves strength and flexibility, making it a valuable additive for various construction applications.
Follow the processing guidelines for modified plastics, select appropriate processing equipment and molds to ensure product molding quality and production efficiency.

Natural mica powder and synthetic mica powder also have great differences in electrical insulation, mechanical properties, chemical stability, application range and cost. Natural mica powder has good electrical insulation, but the volume resistivity is lower than that of synthetic mica. Synthetic mica powder has better electrical insulation properties, high volume resistivity and stable dielectric constant, and is suitable for high performance electrical insulation materials. The hardness of natural mica powder is relatively low (2-3), and it has good elasticity and peeling property. The hardness of synthetic mica powder is higher (between 3 and 4), and the tensile strength and compressive strength are better than that of natural mica powder. Natural mica powder is stable in acid-base solution, but it is easy to decompose at high temperature. Synthetic mica powder is stable to acid and base at room temperature, but will be slowly corroded by sulfuric acid above 300℃. Better thermal stability, not easy to release gas. Natural mica powder is widely used in electrical appliances, welding rods, rubber, plastics, paper making, paint and other fields. Synthetic mica powder is mainly used in high-end electrical insulation materials, aviation, aerospace, national defense industry and other high-tech fields. Because synthetic mica powder needs to be produced through complex chemical processes, its production cost is usually higher than that of natural mica powder. Therefore, in the market, the price of synthetic mica powder is often higher than that of natural mica powder. However, with the continuous progress of production technology and the gradual emergence of scale effects, the price of synthetic mica powder is expected to gradually decrease.
