Nickel Powder
ARS spherical nickel powder is controlled by its particle size and apparent density range. It is the combination of fine particle size, dendritic surface, high purity, and unique shape that have spurred a long list of applications, including high purity magnetic alloys, silver-nickel electrical contacts, welding electrodes, anti-seize lubricants, friction components, nickel catalysts, roll compacted strip, and organo-nickel compounds.
ARS high purity filamentary powder that has been screened to remove large or agglomerated particles. It is used in conductive coatings, adhesives, and gaskets. Filamentary powder’s excellent corrosion resistance, good conductive properties, and unique filamentary shape make it very useful in radio frequency and electromagnetic shielding coatings. If small amounts are added to coil coatings, it enhances weldability.

Nickel Alloy Powder (Thermal Spraying and Welding Powder)
These powders include Ni-B-Si, Ni-Cr-B-Si, Ni-Cr-B-Si-P, Ni-Cr-B-Si-Cu-Mo, Ni-Cr-B-Si-W, Ni-Cr, and Ni-Cu alloys. These are used for applications with excellent corrosion resistance or oxidation resistance. Under 500℃, they have excellent low-stress abrasion and adhesive wear resistance. These powders can be applied to a variety of processes, such as oxyacetylene spraying or overlaying. Plasma transferred are (PTA) overlaying, plasma spraying, laser overlaying, induction melting overlaying, centrifugal casting, 3D printing, and powder metallurgical processing. Key applications include valve gates, ball valve surfaces, valve seats, pistons, plastics extruder screws, glass molds, steel mill rolls, wire drawing rolls, oil pumping shafts, fan blades, screw conveyors, and tungsten carbide tools.
