9μ M Cosmetic Grade Sericite Mica Powder for Eyeshadows

Product Description

Product Description
Sericite is a layered silicate mineral exhibiting a silky luster. It is a subspecies of white mica, appearing as a microfine grain variant of white mica. Its chemical formula is: KAl2(AISi3O10)(OH)2, can be peeled into very thin flakes, flexible and bendable. It demonstrates good resistance to acids and alkalis, salt spray, high temperatures (above 600°C), electrical insulation, and wear. Its unique layered structure offers water vapor barrier properties and a smooth skin feel. It is widely used in rubber, plastic, paint, ceramics, cosmetics, and other industries. Fetures
1. Self-owned mine
We own 0.4565 square kilometers of mining rights for the Ma'anshan sericite mine in Mianning County. Initial proven reserves of 10 million tonnes, mostly mud-like output, high whiteness, small natural grain size. Through agitation and dispersion, it is very easy to separate impurity minerals, and the sericite products obtained are of extremely high purity and are very rare and highly sought-after globally.
2. Patented Technology
The application of patented technology can separate and remove impurities, and reduce the content of heavy metals.
3. Silicon Reduction Technology
Can reduce α-quartz content to less than 1%.The obtained high-quality sericite powder with ultra-low α-quartz is exported to Japan, Korea, USA, France, and other countries, and is highly praised by customers.
4. High Natural Whiteness, Small Natural Particle Size and Thin Flake.
The products have a natural whiteness greater than 85, with a natural average particle size (unprocessed) of approximately D50 = 6.5 micrometers, and upon thorough delamination, the thickness is about 100-200nm. Applications
Our Cosmetic Grade Sericite Mica Powder is produced from Ma'anshan sericite mine by a special wet process and is widely used in cosmetics and personal care products. Its unique flake-like structure can shield ultraviolet rays and is commonly used in sunscreen products. Its good moisture and oil absorption properties control skin oil while providing moderate cover­age and transparency, giving a natural look to makeup. Its high stability and good adhesion enhance the longevity of makeup, and it can be used in makeup and personal care products such as foundations, loose powders, face powders, talcum powders, sunscreens, and eye shadows.
