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.

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

Uses in Cosmetics

Mica is a very common rock-forming mineral, widely distributed in crystalline rocks. Its general chemical formula can be expressed as:

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 the realm of mineral-based industries, mica stands out due to its diverse applications, ranging from electronics to cosmetics. A mica factory functions as a pivotal link in this chain, transforming raw mica into high-value products integral to various sectors. Through examining a mica factory's operations and contributions, we can better appreciate its role and significance.

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.

Synthetic fluorphlogopite mica exhibits a range of properties that make it suitable for various industrial uses. It possesses excellent thermal stability, withstanding high temperatures without deforming, which is particularly beneficial in high-performance applications. Additionally, its dielectric properties are superior, translating into excellent electrical insulation capabilities.
