What types of nickel mesh are there? In what fields is it applied?

Types of nickel mesh

1. Classification by manufacturing process

• Welded nickel mesh : Using electric welding technology to weld nickel wire or strip nickel material into a mesh structure, it has high strength and stability and is suitable for applications with higher requirements such as filtration and steam oxidation.

• Braided nickel mesh : A braiding machine is used to weave nickel wire into a mesh structure according to certain weaving rules. It is soft and bendable and is suitable for electromagnetic shielding, battery plates and other fields. Woven nickel mesh can be further subdivided into plain weave, twill weave, plain Dutch weave, twill Dutch weave and other weaving methods.

• Rolled nickel mesh : The nickel material is processed into a mesh structure through a high-temperature and high-pressure rolling process. It has high uniformity and surface finish, and is suitable for electrolytic nickel, chip capacitors and other fields.

2. Classification by application areas

• Nickel filter mesh : It has high filtration accuracy and corrosion resistance, and is suitable for catalyst carriers, oil-water separation and other filtration equipment in petrochemical, water treatment and other fields.

• Battery plate nickel mesh : It has excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance, and is suitable for the manufacture of battery plates such as solar cells and lithium batteries.

• Electronic shielding nickel mesh : It has excellent electromagnetic shielding performance and is suitable for electromagnetic shielding materials in electronic products, communication equipment and other fields.

• Aerospace nickel mesh : It has the characteristics of lightweight and high strength, and is suitable for filter elements, partitions and other components in the aerospace field.

3. Classification by surface treatment

• Nickel-plated mesh : Electroplating is performed on the surface of the nickel mesh to improve corrosion resistance and surface finish. It is suitable for areas with high corrosion requirements.

• Spray-coated nickel mesh : Spray coating is performed on the surface of the nickel mesh to improve wear resistance and high temperature resistance. It is suitable for high-temperature filtration, petrochemical equipment and other fields.

• Coated nickel mesh : Coating is performed on the surface of nickel mesh to improve surface adhesion and corrosion resistance. It is suitable for composite material reinforcement, anti-corrosion coating and other fields.

Application areas of nickel mesh

The application fields of nickel mesh are very wide, including but not limited to the following aspects:

• Chemical industry : The application of nickel mesh in the chemical industry is mainly reflected in filtration and corrosion resistance. Its excellent corrosion resistance makes it an ideal choice for handling corrosive liquids, such as catalyst carriers, oil-water separation and other filtration equipment.

• Electronic field : The application of nickel mesh in the electronic field is mainly focused on electromagnetic shielding and battery plate manufacturing. Its good electrical conductivity and electromagnetic shielding properties make it an indispensable component in electronic products and communication equipment.

• Aerospace field : The application of nickel mesh in the aerospace field is mainly reflected in lightweight and high strength. Its lightweight characteristics help reduce the weight of aircraft and other aircraft, while its high strength ensures its stability and safety in extreme environments.

• Other fields : Nickel mesh is also widely used in vacuum electrical equipment, electronic instruments, water treatment, high-temperature halogen and other fields. In these fields, nickel mesh plays an important role with its unique performance advantages.

To sum up, nickel mesh comes in various types and has a wide range of applications. With the advancement of science and technology and the development of industry, the application fields of nickel mesh will continue to expand and deepen.
