Nickel Mesh: Make Hydrogen Production Simple and Economical

The expanded nickel mesh is produced by symmetrically slitting and stretching the nickel sheet or coil. Unlike the square mesh of woven nickel mesh, the expanded nickel mesh is distinguished by diamond shape of openings.

Similar to woven nickel meshes, the expanded mesh is corrosion-resistant to alkaline and neutral solution media. It’s mainly used in water electrolysis hydrogen industry to get the green energy of hydrogen in an economical way.

Water electrolysis hydrogen is a process of using electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. In the electrolyzer, the cathode and anode of alkaline electrolysis water are mainly composed of metal alloys, using nickel mesh as the diaphragm. Water will be electrolyzed into hydrogen and oxygen under the action of direct current. And the generated gas needs further dealkalization to get purer.

In the process, nickel mesh is applied instead of noble metals, largely reducing the cost of getting hydrogen.

Skyhall Fence specializes in producing high-purity woven nickel mesh for the water electrolysis hydrogen industry. The nickel wires we use are produced under high purification processes like crystallization, and solid-state to ensure a satisfying purity of Ni>99.9%.

As a kind of green energy, hydrogen has been increasingly applied. How to produce pure hydrogen with minimum pollution to the environment becomes the main focus of the world to pursue sustainable development. Water electrolysis hydrogen is just the silver bullet we are looking for.

Corrosion-resistant nickel mesh takes the place of noble metals as the electrode, enabling us to get hydrogen in an economical way.
