Nickel Alloy Ni-201, Commercially Pure Nickel

How much you know about the Nickel wire mesh? Usually it will be used in battery. Ni 201 and Ni 200 are also known as Nickel Alloy wire mesh Ni-201 and Commercially Pure Nickel, Ni 201. Ni 201 only differs from Ni 200 by its carbon content (.02% max in Ni 201 versus .15% max in Ni 200). This slight drop in carbon allows Ni 201 to be utilized in higher temperature applications (over 600°F) including:
 

• Handling and manufacturing sodium hydroxide above 300°C
• Soap manufacturing
• Viscose Rayon manufacturing
• Production of benzene, methane, and ethane
• Reactors and vessels

Like Ni 200, Ni 201 offers a wide range of benefits to users including:

• It can be hot formed in a almost unlimited number of shapes
• Cold rolled under proper conditions
• Highly resistant to various reducing chemicals
• Outstanding resistance to caustic alkalis
• Good electrical and magnetostrictive properties
• High electrical and thermal conductivity
• The toughness of nickel
•  

Ni 201 is composed of roughly the same chemicals as Ni 200 except for the aforementioned difference in carbon content.

• Ni 99% min
• Fe .40% max
• Mn .35% max
• Si .35% max
• Cu .25% max
• C .02% max
