Ni 99.2
Ni 99.2

*Unified Numbering System (USA)

Characteristics and main uses

Pure nickel Ni 99.2 is characterized by very high resistance to oxidation and chemical corrosion.

Ni 99.2 is magnetic up to approx. +315 ° C. The maximum operating temperature in air is +660 ° C.

• Commercially pure nickel
• Resistance to various reducing chemicals and caustic alkalis
• Good magnetostrictive properties
• High electrical and thermal conductivity
• Good ductility and low strain hardening rate
• Good weldability and solderability

Main uses

• Manufacture of foodstuffs such as the handling of refrigerating brine, fatty acids and fruit juices due to the material's resistance to acids.
• Neutral alkaline and saline solutions and against organic acids
• Tanks in which fluorine is produced and where it reacts with hydrocarbons (CFCs) due to the material's resistance to fluorine
• Storage and transport of phenol
• Production and processing of caustic soda
• Production of synthetic fibers and soaps
• Production of hydrogen chloride and chlorination of hydrocarbons such as benzene, methane and ethane
• Production of vinyl chloride monomer due to the material's resistance to dry chlorine gas and hydrogen chloride at elevated temperatures
• Electrical and electronic components
• Electrode contacts and current conductors in batteries
• Current conductors in alkaline fuels
