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?

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.

4. Add Mica Powder Gradually sprinkle the mica powder into the mixed epoxy resin. A little goes a long way, so start with a small amount and add more as necessary. Stir well to completely integrate the mica powder into the resin.

2. Product Range A supplier that offers a wide range of mica products can be beneficial for companies looking for specific colors, sizes, or types of mica powder. This versatility can streamline the procurement process.
