Natural mica powder and synthetic mica powder have differences in production methods, heat resistance and color transparency. As the name suggests, natural mica powder is made from natural mica ore after processing, retaining the original characteristics and composition of the ore. Its main components are SiO2 (about 49%) and Al2O3 (about 30%), while also containing K2O+Na2O (9%-11%) and so on. The synthetic mica powder (such as fluoroglogopicite powder), is the use of a variety of raw materials through high temperature reaction and other chemical methods synthetic, its composition and characteristics can be adjusted and optimized according to the need, the chemical formula is KMg3(AlSi3O10)F2, belongs to the monoclinic crystal system, is a typical layered silicate, relatively single and pure composition. The heat resistance of natural mica powder is generally 500-600℃, and some types, such as phlogopite, can reach 800℃. The heat resistance of synthetic mica powder is more excellent, and it can withstand high temperatures above 1200℃, and the melting point or crystallization temperature is about 1375±5. The transparency of natural mica powder is relatively low, and the color is diverse, including black, yellow, white, gray, green, brown and other colors, and may vary due to different ore types and processing methods. The color of synthetic mica powder is relatively single, usually colorless transparent or white, high whiteness, good optical performance, and high transmittance from ultraviolet to infrared band.

Properties of Pearl Pigments

Formulation and Performance

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.

The rapid development of new energy vehicles, batteries and other emerging industries also provides a new application scenario for mica products, such as power battery modules and energy storage system of mica cover plate, mica partition, mica monitoring board and composite mica tape and other products, the application of mica provides the industry with a fire safety solution.

5. Sound Dampening Mica’s density and structure help in sound insulation applications. By incorporating mica powder in specific components, manufacturers can reduce noise levels inside the vehicle, contributing to a more pleasant driving experience.

3. Customization Artists can customize their projects by mixing different colors and sizes of mica flakes. This allows for personalized creations that reflect individual tastes and styles.

Transparency and integrity form the backbone of these manufacturers' customer relationships. They provide detailed product information and technical support, fostering trust and ensuring that clients are well-informed to make decisions that best suit their needs.

4. Versatility The range of available pigments allows manufacturers to achieve a wide variety of aesthetics and performances. From deep, rich colors to vibrant pastels and effects, the possibilities are virtually endless.
