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.
3. Long-Lasting Wear Lip pigment powders are designed to adhere well to the lips, providing a long-lasting color payoff. Many formulations are resistant to smudging and fading, making them ideal for those long days when frequent touch-ups aren’t possible.
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.
In addition, lepidolite and ferrolepidolite can also be used as mineral raw materials for extracting lithium.
In the cosmetics industry, mica powder has become a staple ingredient in a wide range of products, including eyeshadows, highlighters, and lip glosses. Its natural sparkle provides a shimmering effect that is both eye-catching and flattering. Additionally, mica is often preferred over synthetic colorants because it is non-toxic and biodegradable, making it a safer choice for personal care products. The increasing consumer demand for clean and natural beauty products has further propelled the popularity of mica powder in this sector.
For example, the safe operation of high-speed rail cannot be separated from the escort of mica products.
It is an indispensable and important raw material in the fields of electric heating equipment, wire and cable, aerospace and so on.
Synthetic 120 mesh :large particle size, with pearl shining effect.
Moreover, phlogopite mica has potential applications in the field of environmental science. Its unique properties render it suitable for use in the remediation of contaminated sites. Phlogopite can help immobilize heavy metals and other pollutants, providing a natural solution for environmental cleanup efforts. As sustainability becomes an increasingly important focus, the role of minerals like phlogopite in ecological applications is becoming more prominent.
Mica is a very common rock-forming mineral, widely distributed in crystalline rocks. Its general chemical formula can be expressed as:
It is an indispensable and important raw material in the fields of electric heating equipment, wire and cable, aerospace and so on.

In short, there are significant differences between natural mica powder and synthetic mica powder in production methods, color and appearance, performance characteristics, application fields, and price and cost. Synthetic mica powder is superior to natural mica powder in terms of high temperature resistance, transparency, electrical insulation, stability and mechanical properties, while natural mica powder has more advantages in resource acquisition, cost and color. When choosing which type of mica powder to use, you can consider the high temperature resistance of the required material, electrical insulation performance, transparency and color requirements, evaluate the mechanical strength and hardness of the required material, consider chemical stability and other different application scenarios and technical requirements to make a reasonable choice.
For example, the safe operation of high-speed rail cannot be separated from the escort of mica products.
2. На стадии заливки. Вы также можете добавлять мику в мыло непосредственно перед его заливкой в формы. Это может создать эффект градиента, если использовать несколько цветов мики.
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.
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.
