Nickel

Nickel raw materials are primarily used in the production of stainless steel, enhancing its corrosion resistance and strength. They are essential in manufacturing batteries, particularly nickel-metal hydride and lithium-ion batteries, to improve energy storage. Additionally, nickel is used in electroplating to provide a protective and decorative finish to various metal products. It is also employed in the production of catalysts for chemical processes, such as hydrogenation.
