Synthetic mica, chemically resembling its natural counterpart, is primarily composed of silicate minerals. It typically includes materials such as silicon dioxide and aluminum oxide, which are combined and processed to create thin, flaky crystals that mimic the look and feel of natural mica. The production process involves high-temperature treatment of raw materials, which are then cooled and ground to form mica flakes of various sizes.

What are the uses of mica

It is an indispensable and important raw material in the fields of electric heating equipment, wire and cable, aerospace and so on.

Mica powder, known as industrial monosodium glutamate, is widely used.
