Product Description:
Lycopodium Powder is a fine spore powder extracted from Lycopodium plants (such as Lycopodium). In the appropriate season, mature Lycopodium spores are collected, dried and crushed to make Lycopodium Powder. It has many uses and is widely used in food, cosmetics, traditional medicine, health products, agriculture.
Lycopodium Powder is also a flammable organic matter that can burn quickly at high temperatures, producing bright flames and a lot of heat. This makes it useful as a combustion aid in fireworks.
Lycopodium powder is classified into two types according to its physical properties and uses: light lycopodium powder and heavy lycopodium powder.
Light Lycopodium powder has a specific gravity of 1.062, a low density, is usually finer, and has smaller particles. It is often used in cosmetics, skin care products, certain foods, and medicinal materials as a thickener, oil absorbent, or filler.
Heavy Lycopodium powder has a specific gravity of 2.10, a higher density, relatively larger particles, and a heavier texture. It is mostly used in industrial applications such as fireworks, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, plastics, and coatings as a combustion aid, filler, and thickener.
