What is the difference between battery grade nickel sulfate and electroplating grade

Nowadays, there are generally two types of nickel sulfate: electroplating-grade nickel sulfate andBattery Grade Nickel Sulfate.Let's take a look at the limitations of nickel sulfate on the electroplating liquid surface and battery liquid surface.

First of all, these 2 quality requirements are different

1. Electroplating grade nickel sulfate has requirements for cobalt element.

Generally, the cobalt content is required to be less than 0.05 percent or the lower the better. Battery-grade nickel sulfate generally has no hard requirements for cobalt and cobalt elements, because cobalt is one of the main elements in nickel-cobalt lithium manganate batteries.

2. Battery grade nickel sulfate currently has requirements for iron and zinc.

Magnetic foreign matter such as chromium, and electroplating-grade nickel sulfate currently has no requirements for this.

3. Electroplating-grade nickel sulfate does not have clear data requirements for various indicators to meet specific uses.

Battery material manufacturers have specific requirements for battery-grade nickel sulfate. Nickel sulfate that meets the index requirements can basically be used.

The 2nd and 2nd sales methods are different

Electroplating plants are often small in scale and large in quantity, and the demand for nickel sulfate is not very large. Nickel sulfate producers do not have enough energy to handle electroplating plants with zero-order purchases. Therefore, there are distributors or agents in the nickel sulfate market.
