Nickel

Nickel sputtering targets are used to create thin films for magnetic storage media, sensors, and decorative coatings.

Nickel is a primary alloying element in stainless steel and superalloys to provide corrosion resistance and high-temperature strength.

High-purity nickel pellets and wire are used as evaporation materials in physical vapor deposition processes to form conductive layers.

Nickel-based superalloy powders are utilized in additive manufacturing for aerospace and industrial gas turbine components.

Nickel powders are used in thermal spray processes to provide wear-resistant and oxidation-resistant coatings on industrial machinery.

Nickel nanoparticles are researched and applied in catalysis and as conductive additives in specialized electronic inks.
