The manufacturing process of synthetic mica involves several key steps. First, raw materials are carefully selected and mixed in precise proportions. Then, they undergo high-temperature processes that cause them to crystallize and form the characteristic layered structure of mica. The final product is then ground into fine particles, resulting in a powder that can be used in various formulations. This meticulous process ensures that synthetic mica is free from impurities and contaminants often found in natural mica, making it an attractive option for high-end applications.

A group of parallel cleavages can be seen in a photograph of biomica under orthogonal polarized (left) and single polarized (right) mirrors.
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.
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?
Despite its myriad benefits, the mica industry faces challenges, particularly regarding ethical sourcing. Concerns over child labor and environmental degradation in some mica-producing regions have prompted demands for more responsible practices. Companies are increasingly seeking to ensure that their mica is sourced ethically, emphasizing the importance of transparency in the supply chain.

In product-centric discussions, mica factories distinguish themselves by their innovative adaptation to changing consumer needs. For instance, the increase in demand for natural cosmetics has driven some factories to develop specialized mica powders that adhere to strict safety standards, are free from harmful additives, and provide vibrant, stable pigments for makeup products. This kind of product line development speaks to the factory’s expertise and commitment to meet market demands while maintaining ecological and health considerations.
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.

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