Laboratory Open-Cell Nickel Foam, 30 PPI, 200 × 200 × 5 mm, 1/5 pcs
Research-grade laboratory product
Product Overview

Open-cell nickel foam with 30 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 0.85 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 Scope

Suitable for laboratory and engineering evaluations that require a 30 PPI open nickel network in a 200 × 200 × 5 mm format. 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 nickel foam sheet must be stored in a clean, dry environment to prevent contamination and corrosion. The open-cell structure must be protected from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination to maintain pore integrity.

  • Storage Environment: Store the sheet in a clean, dry area.
  • Mechanical Protection: Protect the open cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination.

What is the typical tensile strength range of this 30 PPI nickel foam, and how does it affect handling during electrode assembly?

The tensile strength of this 30 PPI nickel foam is stated as 8–50 MPa, which provides sufficient mechanical integrity for cutting, bending, and bonding during electrode assembly while maintaining the open-cell structure.

Is this nickel foam chemically resistant to acidic or alkaline electrolytes used in electrochemical applications?

Yes, the nickel foam is listed as resistant to acid/alkali conditions, making it suitable for use in alkaline electrolysis, battery electrolytes, and other corrosive electrochemical environments.

What are the recommended storage and handling procedures to maintain the integrity of the open-cell structure?

Store the sheets in a clean, dry area and protect the open cellular surface from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination. After delivery, check package condition, sheet dimensions, and visible pore structure before cutting, bonding, or installing.

The 30 PPI open-cell nickel foam sheet delivers a lightweight, high-porosity conductive network for electrochemical electrodes, filtration, and heat-transfer applications, though it demands careful handling and application-specific validation of corrosion and temperature limits.

Positive

  • High porosity and through-pore rate: Porosity ranges from 60–98% with a through-pore rate of at least 98%, enabling efficient gas and liquid transport for filtration, catalytic contact, and electrode loading.
  • Thermal conductivity and temperature resistance: With a heat-transfer coefficient above 3 W/(m²·K) and resistance up to 1100°C, the foam supports rapid heating and high-temperature operations in heat-pipe wicks and electrochemical cells.

Trade-offs

  • Susceptible to mechanical damage: The open-cell structure must be shielded from heavy impact, crushing, and contamination; storage and handling require clean, dry conditions to preserve pore integrity.
  • Application-specific verification required: Corrosion, temperature, mechanical, and integration requirements must be confirmed for the intended environment before ordering, as the nickel foam's performance is not universally guaranteed.
