Nickel alloy
the
Nickel application
Nickel has good plasticity, corrosion resistance and magnetic properties, so it is mainly used in the fields of steel, nickel-based alloys, electroplating and batteries, and is widely used in various military manufacturing industries such as aircraft and radar, civil machinery manufacturing and Electroplating industry, etc.
steel field
Nickel is widely used in steel fields such as stainless steel and alloy steel due to its good corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and rust resistance.
Nickel base alloy field
Nickel-based alloys refer to a class of alloys that have comprehensive properties such as high strength and certain oxidation and corrosion resistance at high temperatures of 650-1000 °C. According to the main performance, it can be subdivided into nickel-based heat-resistant alloys, nickel-based corrosion-resistant alloys, nickel-based wear-resistant alloys, nickel-based precision alloys and nickel-based shape memory alloys.
Electroplating field
Nickel plating refers to covering steel and other metal substrates with a durable and corrosion-resistant coating, which is 20% to 25% more corrosion-resistant than galvanized coatings. Nickel-plated items are beautiful, clean, and not easy to rust. The processing volume of electroplating nickel ranks second only to electroplating zinc, and its consumption accounts for about 10% of the total nickel production. Nickel plating is divided into electroplating nickel plating and chemical nickel plating.
battery field
Nickel plating is also applied to the battery field, mainly including nickel-hydrogen batteries, cadmium-nickel batteries and nickel-manganese batteries. The most rapid development in recent years is the increasingly practical application of MHx-Ni batteries. Its advantages are non-toxic, green and pollution-free, and its storage capacity is 30% more than that of nickel-cadmium batteries. It is lighter than nickel-cadmium batteries and has a longer service life. The disadvantages are The price is more expensive than nickel-cadmium batteries, and the performance is worse than lithium batteries.
