Abstract.Hpulcas GmbH has developed a process of high purity nickel wire manufacturing directly from cathode plates without melting. This means significantly lower capital investments and energy costs as compared to the standard manufacturing technology by melting on the one hand and remaining of the high degree of purity on the other hand. Hpulcas wire is produced by hot rolling of full cathode plates, slitting of plates into sticks, frontal joining and drawing. High purity nickel has such beneficial properties as micro-cleanliness, excellent mechanical and electrical properties and beneficial corrosion resistance. These properties have been used in batteries and fuel cell components, welding and brazing products, and sensing and controlling instruments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
