Synthetic mica flake:

As natural mica can’t resist high temperature, corrosion of strong acid, alkali and harmful gas, so a variety of minerals like high-purity quartz, magnesia and potash,etc. were mixed in specific proportion according to the composition and structure of natural mica. After heating, electrolyze, high temperature fusing and cooling crystallization, so get the Synthetic mica. Molecular formula:KMg3(AlSi3O10)F2,The advantage of Synthetic mica:
1.High whiteness.
2.High purity
3.Low heavy metal
4.Resist high temperature, corrosion of strong acid, alkali and harmful gas.
5.Stable property.
6.Good electrical insulation property.

The synthetic mica in nature is synthetic gold fluorine mica. It replace the phlogopite’s –OH with the most electronegative F- and structural formula becomes KMg3（AlSi3O10）F2. It has general characteristics of both muscovite and phlogopite. They are lamellar, good picking flakes between layers, good insulativity and high corrosion resistance. Beside these common characteristics, it has excellent high temperature resistance, better whiteness, wider photic zone, better evenness, remarkable high temperature insulativity, no impurities, no radioactivity and rare heavy metal content, which the natural mica don’t have. Therefore, synthetic mica owns better characteristics than natural mica does and is more widely used in such applications as pearlescent pigment, cosmetic industry, isolated material and etc
