Application areas of nickel foam

1. Flame retardant and explosion-proof field

The vast majority of foam metal has flame retardant properties and fluid permeability, so nickel foam is widely used in the field of explosion-proof and flame retardant, commonly acetylene or oxygen flame gas welding and gas cutting; torches, oil and gas recovery systems and other fields, and now also able to be used in fuel, liquefied gas storage tanks and other fields, for explosion-proof and fire protection.

2. Soundproof and fireproof

Nickel Foam is loose and porous, together with the foam gradient; and the foam metal itself can be flame retardant and muffled, so the nickel foam is also widely used in indoor KTV, cinema, studio halls and other places with muffling and fireproof requirements.

3. Shock absorption and vibration reduction scale

The nickel foam not only has a strong stiffness but also can absorb the impact energy through its damping characteristics when it is impacted. So foam nickel is also widely used in car bumpers, lifting the transport system buffer and other fields because of its shock absorption and damping.

4. Car industry

Nickel Foam is not only high strength but also has lightweight characteristics due to the low density of the foam metal itself. In addition, the foam itself can also be fireproof, corrosion resistant, and sound absorption; so now nickel foam is also widely used in transportation, ships and other vehicles, but also used as locomotives, construction and decoration and other spacers.

5. Environmental protection field

Due to its structure with pores, nickel foam can make the solids in gas and liquid retained and captured. Therefore, nickel foam is widely used in the field of filtration, such as oil smoke purification, oil sand filtration, gas filtration, water filtration.

6. Radiation shielding field

Nickel Foam inherits the characteristics of foam metal, so it can interfere with electromagnetic waves, and make them attenuate and convert energy. Foamed nickel also widely used in electromagnetic radiation shieldings, such as power stations, signal transmitting base stations and military fields, can see foam

7. Heat dissipation field

Nickel Foam is mainly a three-dimensional structure, so its through-hole rate can reach 95~98%; and compared with the metal under the same volume, the surface area of foamed nickel can reach 6~10 times. And has great heat dissipation, LED and a variety of electronic devices heat sink body composition
