NICKEL SULPHATE HEPTAHYDRATE
NICKEL SULPHATE HEPTAHYDRATE
APPLICATIONS:
- Galvanizing Industry: Ni-electroplating
- Ni(OH)2 for production of Ni-Me-H rechargeable batteries
Nickel-Metal-Hydroxide (Ni-Me-H) batteries are widely used in a variety of applications ranging from rechargeable consumer cells and all the way to electricity accumulators in hybrid-drive cars. The main component of Ni-Me-H batteries, Nickel Hydroxide, is synthesized from Nickel Sulphate Heptahydrate ex URALELECTROMED:
Ni SO4 → Ni (OH)2
Ni-Me-H battery technology was invented and copyrighted by OVONIC Battery Company (Detroit, MI). OVONIC (www.ovonic.com) is licensing this technology and collecting royalty from all the legal producers of Ni-Me-H batteries worldwide, most of them located in Asia-Pacific region. OVONIC is the producer of etalon nickel hydroxide.
Since 2006 INMATRADE AG submitted a few sizeable lots to OVONIC for industrial testing and several batteries were built based on nickel hydroxide formulated from our nickel sulphate. These batteries were tested side-by-side with a model battery to prove that the source material from URALELECTROMED is in compliance with the standards of OVONIC’s Ni-Me-H know-how.
