Understanding Mica
Natural mica powder and synthetic mica powder also have great differences in electrical insulation, mechanical properties, chemical stability, application range and cost. Natural mica powder has good electrical insulation, but the volume resistivity is lower than that of synthetic mica. Synthetic mica powder has better electrical insulation properties, high volume resistivity and stable dielectric constant, and is suitable for high performance electrical insulation materials. The hardness of natural mica powder is relatively low (2-3), and it has good elasticity and peeling property. The hardness of synthetic mica powder is higher (between 3 and 4), and the tensile strength and compressive strength are better than that of natural mica powder. Natural mica powder is stable in acid-base solution, but it is easy to decompose at high temperature. Synthetic mica powder is stable to acid and base at room temperature, but will be slowly corroded by sulfuric acid above 300℃. Better thermal stability, not easy to release gas. Natural mica powder is widely used in electrical appliances, welding rods, rubber, plastics, paper making, paint and other fields. Synthetic mica powder is mainly used in high-end electrical insulation materials, aviation, aerospace, national defense industry and other high-tech fields. Because synthetic mica powder needs to be produced through complex chemical processes, its production cost is usually higher than that of natural mica powder. Therefore, in the market, the price of synthetic mica powder is often higher than that of natural mica powder. However, with the continuous progress of production technology and the gradual emergence of scale effects, the price of synthetic mica powder is expected to gradually decrease.
Choosing the Right Mica Powder
In addition to its aesthetic qualities, mica powder is also known for its versatility. It can be used to create a range of effects, from soft and subtle pearlescent sheens to bold metallic finishes. Whether you want to achieve a natural, stone-like effect, a colorful swirl, or a radiant metallic shine, mica powder in resin offers endless creative possibilities.

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.

4. Storage Matters Keep chameleon mica powder in airtight containers, away from direct sunlight, to preserve its vibrant colors and texture.
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.
It is an indispensable and important raw material in the fields of electric heating equipment, wire and cable, aerospace and so on.
In addition, lepidolite and ferrolepidolite can also be used as mineral raw materials for extracting lithium.
5. Hydration Certain forms of mica powder can also contribute to the moisture retention in formulations. This can enhance the overall skin feel and provide a smooth application, making the skin appear more youthful and plump.
Phlogopite is a type of mica that is brown or reddish-brown in color, often found in metamorphic and igneous rocks. It is known for its flexible sheets, insulating capabilities, and resistance to high temperatures. These properties make it ideal for a variety of industrial applications.
The mica variety that does not contain iron is colorless in flakes, and the higher the iron content, the darker the color, and the more polychromatic and absorbable it is. According to the different chemical composition and optical characteristics, mica group minerals can be divided into Muscovite subgroup, biotite-phlogopite subgroup and lemica subgroup. The common mica are biotite, phlogopite, Muscovite and so on.
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.
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.

2. Versatility Organic mica powder offers a wide range of pigmentation, making it a versatile ingredient for various applications. Depending on the grinding process and the specific minerals used, mica powder can yield an array of colors, from subtle pastels to vibrant hues. This versatility allows consumers and manufacturers to create unique formulations for makeup, nail polish, and body lotions, as well as artistic crafts.
