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 100 × 100 × 2 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.

The open-cell nickel foam sheet requires clean, dry storage and protection from mechanical damage. Inspection of package and dimensions is required before any fabrication steps.

  • Storage Condition: Store the sheets in a clean, dry area.
  • Impact Protection: Protect the open cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination.
  • Pre-Use Inspection: Check the package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding, or installing.

Proper handling of nickel foam sheets involves careful storage and inspection to preserve the porous structure. Protect the material from impact and contamination before any use.

What electromagnetic shielding effectiveness does this 110 PPI nickel foam provide?

The product description states that the electromagnetic-wave shielding performance is approximately 90 dB with a relatively thin material section. This makes the foam suitable for applications requiring electromagnetic interference attenuation combined with a lightweight, porous structure.

Is this nickel foam suitable for use in high-temperature catalytic reactors exceeding 1000°C?

Yes, the listed high-temperature capability exceeds 1100°C, and the material is fire-resistant and recyclable. The product is explicitly recommended for catalyst carriers, exhaust purification, and hydrogen electrolysis, which often involve elevated temperatures.

What storage conditions are recommended to prevent degradation of the nickel foam's open-cell structure?

The product handling instructions recommend storing the sheets in a clean, dry area and protecting the open cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination. These precautions preserve the pore integrity and ensure consistent performance in downstream applications.

The 110 PPI open-cell nickel foam (100×100×2 mm) provides a high through-pore rate (≥98%) and 60–98% porosity, enabling efficient fluid and gas flow for electrochemical and filtration applications. Its lightweight structure (specific gravity 0.2–0.3) and thermal conductivity support heat-transfer and catalytic uses, but the foam requires careful handling to avoid deformation and contamination, and application-specific corrosion and temperature limits must be verified before deployment.

Positive

  • High through-pore rate and porosity: With ≥98% through-pore rate and 60–98% porosity, the open-cell network supports efficient gas/liquid transport and high surface area, ideal for electrode loading and filtration.
  • Lightweight with thermal and electrical conductivity: Specific gravity of 0.2–0.3 (about one-tenth of aluminum) combined with heat-transfer coefficient >3 W/(m²·K) and electrical conductivity makes it suitable for heat-pipe wicks and battery electrodes.

Trade-offs

  • Susceptible to mechanical damage and contamination: The open cellular surface must be protected from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination; careful storage and handling are required to preserve pore structure and performance.
  • Application-specific validation required: Corrosion resistance, temperature limits, and mechanical integrity must be confirmed against the intended operating environment, as listed ranges are broad and not universally applicable.
