The nickel is a sliver color metal. According to the purity, the nickel has different material types, such as the N2, N4, N6 and N8. Pure Nickel wire mesh is manufactured from nickel wire with high purity not less than 99%. Nickel wire mesh features excellent corrosion, acid and alkali resistance, high electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and ductility, heat resistance, wear resistance. Nickel wire mesh or low-alloy nickel wire mesh is useful in chemical processing because of its resistance to various chemicals including acid, alkali. It is also useful in the electronics due to its high electrical conductivity. The Nickel wire can be also used in the heat exchange due to its thermal conductivity and ductility.
Nickel wire mesh for electrode is produced by weaving nickel wires into diverse styles. It is suitable for use in alkaline fuel cells. Nickel has good mechanical characteristics and low stress while offering excellent corrosion resistance and strength properties. It offers much better performance than stainless steel.
