Description
Specify Your Nickel Foam
Send the required sheet length and width, thickness, pore size or PPI, quantity and surface condition. Include porosity, areal-density and purity requirements where your process specifies them. Confirm the combination of these parameters before ordering: pore structure and sheet thickness both matter when selecting foam for an electrode or research setup.
๐ Premium Open-Cell Nickel Foam โ High Porosity Electrode Material for Battery & Hydrogen Applications
Shaanxi Nickel Titanium Copper Metal Co., Ltd supplies high-performance open-cell nickel foam with customizable dimensions, thickness, and porosity. Engineered with a 3D interconnected structure, our nickel foam is ideal for use in battery electrodes, fuel cells, electrocatalysis, hydrogen production, and industrial filtration.
๐ง Product Overview
Nickel foam is a porous metallic material composed of pure nickel, designed to offer a large specific surface area, high electrical conductivity, and excellent corrosion resistance. The open-cell structure allows for efficient flow of gases or electrolytes, making it a preferred choice in electrochemical and energy storage systems.
Our nickel foam is produced via the polyurethane-template electroplating process, ensuring uniform pore size and mechanical strength. We provide custom fabrication services, supporting clients in prototyping and scaling high-performance energy components.
