Spherical Nickel Powder Description
Nickel powder is a black or grey powder with a high surface area. Spherical nickel powder has the features of high purity (99.5 %), high sphericity, smooth surface, and uniform particle size distribution.
Spherical Nickel Powder is a finely divided form of nickel that has been processed to form spherical-shaped particles. It is commonly produced through various manufacturing processes such as gas atomization, chemical vapor deposition, and electroplating.
Spherical Nickel Powder has several unique properties that make it useful in various applications. It has a high surface area, which enables excellent reactivity and facilitates good bonding properties. The spherical shape of the particles also promotes good flowability, making it ideal for use in additive manufacturing processes like 3D printing.
About 3D Printing – From Wikipedia
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), refers to various processes used to synthesize a three-dimensional object. In 3D printing, successive layers of material are created under computer control. These objects can be of almost any shape or geometry and are produced from a 3D model or another electronic data source. A 3D printer is a type of industrial robot.
