While our focus often lands on high-strength alloys, sometimes purity is the most critical factor. Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 are two grades of commercially pure Nickel that are indispensable for specific industrial processes where resistance to caustic agents and high electrical conductivity are paramount. Commercially Pure Nickel Properties Composition: Contains a minimum of 99% Nickel. Ni 201 is the low-carbon version of Ni 200 .Corrosion Resistance: Offers outstanding resistance to caustic alkalies (Caustic Soda/NaOH) at all concentrations and temperatures, making it the standard material for the production and handling of lye. Thermal and Electrical Properties: Possesses high thermal conductivity and excellent electrical conductivity, making it ideal for busbars, battery components, and electronics. Applications of Nickel 200/201Chemical Processing: Vessels and piping for handling hot caustic soda, chlorine gas generation, and synthetic fiber processing. Food Processing: Handling of fatty acids and pure food products where contamination must be avoided. Electronics: Electrical and electronic components, battery connections, and heat sinks. Nickel 200 vs. Nickel 201: The Carbon Factor The difference lies in the Carbon content: Nickel 200 (Higher Carbon): Suitable for service temperatures below 315°C. Nickel 201 (Low Carbon): Essential for service temperatures above 315°C to prevent graphitization (carbon precipitation), which can embrittle the material.
