What is Mica Powder?

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.

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.

Mica is a new non-metallic crystal material, a national key new material, with heat insulation, insulation, high temperature resistance characteristics, is an important material in aerospace, rail transit, nuclear power, wind power, aircraft carriers and other high-tech fields, but also electrical equipment, wire and cable, household appliances indispensable insulation material, in the national economy and national defense construction plays an important role.

1. Cosmetics Mica powder is most commonly used in the cosmetics industry. Its light-reflecting properties provide a glow that enhances skin tones, making it an ideal ingredient for foundations, blushes, eyeshadows, and lip products. Many brands now prioritize natural mica in their formulations to cater to the growing demand for clean beauty products.

Pearl pigment powder is also favored by artists and crafters. It can be incorporated into various mediums, such as paints, resins, and inks, providing vibrant and reflective qualities to artworks. Artists use pearl pigments to create stunning effects in their paintings, adds depth to their masterpieces, and enhances the overall aesthetic. For example, when mixed with acrylic paints, pearl pigments create an enchanting glimmer that resembles the iridescence found in natural materials like seashells or opals.

2. Enhanced Depth and Dimension When added to epoxy, metallic mica powder creates a three-dimensional illusion. The way light interacts with these particles gives depth to the resin, making it more dynamic and visually appealing. This characteristic is particularly valuable for projects like river tables and countertops, where a striking surface is desired.

For example, the safe operation of high-speed rail cannot be separated from the escort of mica products.

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.

Mica's unique characteristics, such as its resistance to heat and electricity, make it an essential material in several applications. In the cosmetics industry, mica is used as a natural pigment in makeup products like foundations, eyeshadows, and highlighters, imparting a shimmering effect that enhances beauty products. In the electronics sector, mica serves as an insulator and dielectric material, crucial for the functioning of capacitors, electronic circuits, and other components. Additionally, the automotive industry uses mica in brake linings and electrical insulation, showcasing its versatility.

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.

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.
