At its core, pearlescent pigment powder consists of tiny, flat particles that reflect and refract light in a way that produces a unique, lustrous finish. These pigments are often made from natural materials like mica or synthetic substances, and they are coated with various metallic oxides to enhance their optical properties. The result is a spectrum of colors that can change depending on the angle from which they are viewed, creating a dazzling effect that is sought after in many applications.

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.
Though synthetic mica may provide certain advantages, some purists argue that it lacks the unique beauty and character of natural mica. The aesthetic differences, particularly in cosmetics, can impact consumer preference, with many still favoring the genuine qualities of natural mica.
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.
Grade and Fineness: The grade and fineness of the powder also impact pricing. Golden mica powder used in cosmetics is often finer and of a higher grade, increasing its cost compared to industrial-grade mica.
The mica industry is undergoing profound changes. With the help of emerging industries, the mica industry will be a large market of more than 10 billion.
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.
Mica is a very common rock-forming mineral, widely distributed in crystalline rocks. Its general chemical formula can be expressed as:
Mica has a wide range of uses, in ancient China, it is often used to do traditional Chinese medicine, the ancients even think that taking mica: a year to remove all diseases (heavy metal poisoning), three years of long service, husband into a boy (body scrap), Zhongshan uncle Qing suit, over time can become a cloud (soul ascension). However, in the era without glass, the transparency of mica makes it a better decorative material, for example, we are familiar with the mica screen candle shadow deep, the river gradually falling Xiaoxing sink. Mica screen is low, tassel tent is small and mica calf car.
For example, the safe operation of high-speed rail cannot be separated from the escort of mica products.
