Nickel Powder, Hydrogen-Reduced

The OH series of Nickel Powders is produced through a hydrometallurgical process, also known as Hydrogen-Reduced or the “Sherritt-Gordon” process. Nickel is precipitated under high pressure and temperature to create a spherical shape with a “cauliflower” surface. Hunter Chemical further processes the raw material, employing screens and other separation methods into particle size ranges for diverse applications.

Chemical Analysis:

Element	Specification		Typical
Nickel	99.80 % min.		99.90	%
Carbon	.1000 % max.		.0560	%
Cobalt	.0050 % max.		.0030	%
Copper	.0010 % max.	<	.0001	%
Iron	.0300 % max.		.0230	%
Phosphorus	.0005 % max.	<	.0002	%
Sulfur	.0500 % max.		.0280	%
Zinc	.0010 % max.	<	.0001	%

Apparent Density:

3.2 – 4.5 g/cm³
