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.
Mica is a very common rock-forming mineral, widely distributed in crystalline rocks. Its general chemical formula can be expressed as:
Synthetic 120 mesh :large particle size, with pearl shining effect.
It is an indispensable and important raw material in the fields of electric heating equipment, wire and cable, aerospace and so on.

2. Source of Mica The geographical source of mica also plays a critical role in pricing. Mica is primarily mined in countries like India, China, and Brazil. Variations in mining regulations, labor costs, and environmental impact assessments in these countries can lead to fluctuations in pricing. Ethical sourcing practices and sustainable mining methods are becoming increasingly important to consumers, and products that are ethically sourced may command higher prices.
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.
