Overview of Nickel

Nickel is a hard, silvery-white metal widely used in industrial, metallurgical, and chemical applications. Known for its corrosion resistance, strength, and durability, Nickel plays a critical role in alloy production, electroplating, batteries, and specialty chemicals. It is typically extracted from ores such as pentlandite and laterite and processed into powder, pellets, or granules for industrial use.

In industrial sectors, Nickel is valued for its ability to enhance corrosion resistance in stainless steel, improve mechanical properties in alloys, and serve as a catalyst or intermediate in chemical manufacturing. ChemicalBull supplies industrial-grade Nickel ensuring consistent quality, purity, and reliable supply for professional and commercial applications.
