ABOUT SYNTHETIC MICA

Fluorphlogopite mica, also known as artificial mica, synthetic mica crystal, is a man-made mica that closely resembles its natural mineral counterpart mined from the earth. Smooth in texture and extra vibrant in hue, synthetic micas are a wonderful alternative to natural micas. Synthetic micas are widely used in crafts, cosmetics, paints, and more.

The synthetic fluorine mica, fluorphlogopite KMg3(AlSi3O10)F2, contains no (OH)- of the natural phlogopite KMg3(AlSi3O10)(OH)2. The (OH)- is fully substituted with F- . Large fluorine mica crystals of high quality are grown by a Bridgman-Stockbarger method using platinum crucibles with seeds.

What is Synthetic Mica Made of?

Synthetic mica is produced by hot melting method according to the chemical compositions and inner structures of natural mica. Synthetic mica forms through heating, melting, cooling and crystallization. The raw materials are blended, including quartz sand, potassium carbonate, aluminum oxide, potassium fluosilicate, fused magnesite and some other minerals. It has advantage of smoother surface, higher whiteness and purity. Synthetic mica is free from heavy metals that are harmful to human body.
