Laboratory Open-Cell Nickel Foam, 110 PPI, 200 × 200 × 5 mm, 1/5 pcs
Research-grade laboratory product
Product Overview

Open-cell nickel foam with 110 PPI is a lightweight, electrically conductive porous-metal sheet built around a continuous three-dimensional nickel skeleton. In this 200 × 200 × 5 mm format, the approximately 0.23 mm nominal pore pitch creates a regular open network with extensive internal surface exposure, allowing gases, liquids and electrochemical reactants to move through the material instead of remaining confined to the outer faces.

The interconnected framework gives the sheet a useful balance of permeability, formability and structural continuity. It can be cut, bent or bonded into laboratory assemblies while preserving the open pathways needed for filtration, catalytic contact, electrode loading and heat transfer. The nickel matrix also makes the foam relevant where electrical conduction, thermal response, corrosion resistance, acoustic attenuation or electromagnetic shielding must be combined with a low-mass cellular structure.

This specification is suitable for evaluating battery and fuel-cell electrodes, nickel-carbon composite electrode structures, catalyst carriers, exhaust and air-purification media, oil-water separation, industrial filtration, hydrogen electrolysis, electrocatalysis, heat-pipe wicks, condenser structures and distillation packing. Select the PPI, sheet dimensions and thickness around the intended flow, surface-area and integration requirements; choose a 1-piece pack for initial evaluation or a 5-piece pack for repeated trials and small-batch assembly.

Application areas include nickel-metal-hydride, nickel-cadmium and fuel-cell positive and negative electrodes; nickel-carbon composite electrodes for lithium batteries; catalyst and exhaust-purification carriers; air purification, oil-water separation and industrial filtration; hydrogen electrolysis, electrocatalysis and electrochemical metallurgy; infrared-burner surfaces and industrial or domestic drying-heater structures; heat-pipe wicks and condenser heat-transfer media; distillation-tower packing; and functional damping, acoustic, vibration-buffering, electromagnetic-shielding, thermal-insulation and decorative structures.
SELECTION GUIDANCE: Confirm PPI, nominal pore pitch, porosity requirement, through-pore rate, sheet length and width, thickness, bulk-density range, operating environment and required quantity before quotation. Confirm application-critical corrosion, temperature, mechanical and integration requirements before ordering.
HANDLING & INSPECTION: Store the sheets in a clean, dry area and protect the open cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing and contamination. After delivery, check the package condition, sheet dimensions and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding or installing the material.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Custom dimensions are available upon consultation. For a dimensional feasibility review by e-mail, provide the target length, width, thickness, PPI and estimated quantity.

Store the nickel foam sheets in a clean, dry area and protect them from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination. Inspect the package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding, or installing the material.

  • Storage Conditions: Store the sheets in a clean, dry environment to prevent moisture and contamination.
  • Handling Protection: Protect the open cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination during handling.
  • Pre-Use Inspection: Inspect the package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding, or installing.

How does the 110 PPI pore density affect the balance between permeability and surface area for electrode applications?

The 110 PPI density corresponds to a nominal pore pitch of approximately 0.23 mm, creating a regular open network with extensive internal surface exposure. With a porosity range of 60–98% and a through-pore rate of at least 98%, this structure allows gases, liquids, and electrochemical reactants to flow through the material while providing high surface area for catalytic contact or electrode loading. The balance is suitable for battery and fuel-cell electrodes, catalyst carriers, and hydrogen electrolysis applications where both permeability and surface area are critical.

Can this nickel foam be used directly as a current collector in alkaline electrolysis cells without additional coating?

Yes, the nickel foam is suitable for direct use in alkaline electrolysis cells due to its inherent corrosion resistance to alkaline conditions, as stated in the product description. The nickel matrix provides electrical conductivity and thermal response, with a listed temperature resistance of ≥500°C and high-temperature capability >1100°C. The mechanical strength (≥2–7 MPa) and ability to be cut, bent, or bonded allow integration into electrode assemblies without additional coating, though application-specific corrosion and integration requirements should be confirmed before ordering.

What storage and handling precautions are required to prevent deformation or contamination of the open-cell structure?

Store the nickel foam sheets in a clean, dry area and protect the open cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination, as specified in the product's handling and inspection guidance. After delivery, check package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding, or installing. The material can be cut, bent, or bonded while preserving the open pathways needed for filtration, catalytic contact, or electrode loading.

This 110 PPI open-cell nickel foam sheet (200 × 200 × 5 mm) provides a high-porosity (60–98%), ≥98% through-pore nickel skeleton with a nominal pore pitch of 0.23 mm, suitable for battery electrodes, catalyst carriers, and filtration media where electrical conductivity, thermal transfer, and corrosion resistance are required. The 0.2–0.3 specific gravity and ≥500°C temperature resistance enable lightweight, high-temperature lab assemblies, but the material's mechanical strength (≥2–7 MPa) and compressive strength (≥250 kPa) impose handling constraints to avoid pore collapse.

Positive

  • High through-pore rate and porosity: The ≥98% through-pore rate and 60–98% porosity ensure unobstructed fluid and gas transport, critical for electrochemical electrode loading and catalytic contact in battery and fuel-cell applications.
  • Thermal and chemical stability: Listed temperature resistance ≥500°C with capability above 1100°C, combined with acid/alkali resistance, allows deployment in high-temperature electrolysis, hydrogen production, and corrosive filtration environments without structural degradation.

Trade-offs

  • Low mechanical strength limits handling: With tensile strength of 8–50 MPa and compressive strength ≥250 kPa, the foam is susceptible to permanent deformation or pore collapse under heavy impact or crushing loads, requiring careful storage and gentle handling during cutting and bonding.
  • Bulk density variability affects consistency: The stated bulk-density range of 0.1–0.8 g/cm³ indicates potential variation in mass per unit volume across sheets, which may influence electrode loading uniformity and require batch-specific calibration for reproducible experimental results.
