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.

What are the uses of mica
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.
Conclusion
Mica operations are integral to various industries, providing essential materials that contribute to technological advancement and everyday products. However, the challenges associated with environmental impact and ethical sourcing cannot be overlooked. By transitioning towards sustainable practices and ensuring ethical labor conditions, the mica industry can thrive while addressing the concerns that have long plagued it. The future of mica operations lies in the hands of all stakeholders willing to prioritize sustainability and ethics, ensuring that this valuable resource can be harnessed responsibly for generations to come.
One of the most attractive features of shimmer pigment powder is its versatility. It can be used in a multitude of applications, including
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.
One of the standout features of pearl pigment powder is its ability to provide a unique, multi-dimensional finish that traditional pigments cannot achieve. Here's a closer look at the benefits
Mica powder, known as industrial monosodium glutamate, is widely used. With the continuous development of technology and application market, and some new requirements have been put forward for the quality of mica powder, so synthetic mica powder has been developed. Compared with the natural mica powder processed by natural mica ore, and the synthetic mica powder synthesized by using a variety of raw materials through high temperature reaction and other chemical methods. What are the advantages and differences between them?
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.
The mica variety that does not contain iron is colorless in flakes, and the higher the iron content, the darker the color, and the more polychromatic and absorbable it is. According to the different chemical composition and optical characteristics, mica group minerals can be divided into Muscovite subgroup, biotite-phlogopite subgroup and lemica subgroup. The common mica are biotite, phlogopite, Muscovite and so on.
For example, the safe operation of high-speed rail cannot be separated from the escort of mica products.
Mica has a wide range of uses, in ancient China, it is often used to do traditional Chinese medicine, the ancients even think that taking mica: a year to remove all diseases (heavy metal poisoning), three years of long service, husband into a boy (body scrap), Zhongshan uncle Qing suit, over time can become a cloud (soul ascension). However, in the era without glass, the transparency of mica makes it a better decorative material, for example, we are familiar with the mica screen candle shadow deep, the river gradually falling Xiaoxing sink. Mica screen is low, tassel tent is small and mica calf car.
