Nickel Chloride

Nickel Chloride Supplier, Manufacturer & Exporter in India – Nickel Chloride is an important inorganic chemical compound with the formula NiCl2. The anhydrous form appears yellow, while the commonly used hydrated form NiCl2·6H2O is green in color. It is widely used as a primary source of nickel in chemical synthesis and industrial applications. Nickel Chloride is hygroscopic and deliquescent, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air and forms a solution.

Our high-quality Nickel Chloride is manufactured from virgin nickel metal under strict quality control processes to ensure high purity, consistent composition, and superior performance. Due to its controlled crystal size and uniform structure, it dissolves quickly and smoothly, making it ideal for electroplating and chemical processing industries.

Nickel Chloride is extensively used in electroplating, catalysts, dye manufacturing, and battery applications. It also serves as an absorbent for ammonia in gas masks and plays a key role in electroless nickel plating processes. Additionally, it is used in agriculture for fungicidal applications such as tea plantations.

Due to its excellent solubility and reactivity, Nickel Chloride is preferred by electroplaters and nickel-based chemical manufacturers for both general and specialized applications. However, proper handling is essential as nickel salts may pose health risks if not used with safety precautions.

Storage:

• 1. Nickel Chloride is a crystalline salt containing water molecules and should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. It must be protected from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity to prevent caking or change in appearance.
• 2. Even if physical appearance changes due to environmental conditions, the chemical properties remain stable and effective.

Application:

• 1. Used in nickel electroplating for metals like zinc
• 2. Manufacturing of dyes and catalysts
• 3. Used as ammonia absorbent (NH3) in gas masks
• 4. Essential in electroless plating processes

Precautions Before Use:

• 1. Direct contact may cause skin and eye irritation. Always use protective equipment.
• 2. In case of skin contact, wash thoroughly with soap and water.
• 3. In case of eye exposure, rinse with clean water for 10–15 minutes and consult a doctor.
