Nickel wire mesh for hydrogen production electrodes
Nickel wire mesh for hydrogen production electrodes
Nickel wire mesh is mostly used as filter media and fuel cell electrode. They are woven with high quality nickel wire (purity > 99.5 or purity > 99.9 depending on customer requirement). These products are made of high quality, high purity nickel materials. We produce these products following the industrial standards strictly.

Nickel Mesh can be divided into two types
Nickel wire mesh (nickel wire cloth)
Nickel wire mesh is woven using high purity nickel wire. It has high strength, good corrosion resistance and good thermal conductivity. Nickel Wire Mesh is widely used in chemical, metallurgical, petroleum, electrical, construction and other similar applications.
Nickel expanded metal
Nickel expanded metals are widely used as electrodes and current collectors for various kinds of batteries. Nickel expanded metal is made by expanding high quality nickel foils into mesh.
In the global pursuit of sustainable energy, green hydrogen produced through water electrolysis is a cornerstone of the decarbonization strategy. The efficiency and longevity of an electrolyzer stack critically depend on the performance of its core components, particularly the electrodes. Our Nickel Wire Mesh for Hydrogen Production Electrodes is scientifically designed to serve as the ideal substrate and current collector, meeting the rigorous demands of both Alkaline and Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzer technologies.
Manufactured from high-purity Nickel 200/201 alloy (N6), this mesh provides an optimal balance of material properties essential for electrolysis. Nickel's inherent resistance to corrosion in caustic alkaline environments and under acidic PEM conditions ensures long-term operational stability, directly contributing to reduced maintenance costs and extended system lifespan for industrial-scale electrolyzers.
The meticulously controlled weave of our nickel wire mesh creates a uniform, three-dimensional porous matrix. This architecture is fundamental for high-performance hydrogen production electrodes, as it maximizes the electrochemically active surface area for catalyst loading and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Its structure promotes efficient electron transfer, ensures even current distribution across the electrode surface, and facilitates the rapid release of generated gas bubbles. This minimizes ionic resistance and overpotential, leading to higher overall energy efficiency and current density in the electrolyzer cell.
As a key conductive material within the electrolyzer stack, the quality and consistency of the nickel mesh directly impact performance and capital expenditure. Our product is fabricated to the highest standards, offering exceptional durability to withstand continuous operation and thermal cycling. By providing a reliable and efficient nickel mesh for water electrolyzer systems, we support OEMs and researchers in advancing electrolyzer technology, driving down the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH), and accelerating the adoption of green hydrogen globally.
