Wet-ground Mica Powder by YAMAGUCHI process
This series is high performance mica powder that realizes smooth and thin scale-like particles with high aspect ratio using a
grinding machine uniquely developed by Yamaguchi Mica Co.,Ltd. It produces effects that the any other makers have never
effectuated. Pure Indian muscovite which contains much more fully-grown crystals is used as the material and is processed
with our high-level refinement and iron removal methods that guarantee the quality of our products.
