Nickel cathodes

A very ductile and malleable metal, nickel is perfectly treatable. Nickel oxide in the form of a thin film completely covers the surface of nickel fine and protects the metal from further oxidation reactions. Everywhere Nickel is used as an important element in alloys. It gives the alloys a high viscosity index and increased chemical resistance. Any stainless steel part necessarily consists of nickel. Nickel perfectly soldered hard and soft solders.

In modern industry Nickel cathodes are used everywhere. Their characteristics and are directly dependent on the quality of the incoming impurities percentage. Mechanical and technological properties possessed by nickel cathodes degrade most sulfur impurities, zinc, lead, bismuth, antimony. For example, sulfide film formed sulfur begins to melt at a temperature of 645 degrees, which causes fragility rolled.

In accordance with the standards of nickel cathode plates produced as specified sizes. Thickness may vary from 2 to 20 millimeters. Their width - in the range of 500 to 800 millimeters. The length of the plates can be from 500 to 2000 millimeters. Nickel is mainly produced by electrorefining.

Most nickel cathodes are processed into semi-finished nickel following brands: NP1, NP2, NP3 and NP4. For the manufacture of special purpose products take NP1 nickel grade, where only 0.1 percent of impurities. The machinery and instrument most frequently used nickel cathodes NP2, in which the impurities present are not more than 0.5%. Nickel cathodes NP3 and NP4 used in less technologically advanced areas.
