Types of Nickel Silver Powder
There are several standard classifications and specifications of nickel silver powder based on composition, particle size, morphology, manufacturing process etc.
Tabulka 5: Types of Nickel Silver Powder
| Typ | Popis |
|---|---|
| By Composition | CuNi18Zn20, CuNi12Zn24 etc. based on percentage of metals |
| By Particle Shape | Spherical, irregular, flattened, dendritic and more |
| By Size | Range from 1 micron to 100s of microns |
| By Production Method | Atomized, carbonyl, electrolytic, spherical etc. |
| By Additives | With lubricants, flow agents, antioxidants etc. |
Tvar částic: Spherical and near-spherical powders have the best sintering properties and density in finished products. Irregular, flattened and dendritic particles provide higher green strength.
Velikost částic: Finer atomized powders of 1-20 microns flow easily and sinter faster. Coarser powders over 150 microns have higher green strength. Ultrafine nano nickel silver powder is also produced.
Výrobní metoda: Common production techniques include gas atomization, electrolysis, carbonyl decomposition etc. which affect particle shape and size distribution.
Additives: Small amounts of graphite, stearates etc. are added to improve powder flow and lubrication during compaction.
The specific nickel silver powder specification must be chosen based on the fabrication process and application requirements of strength, precision, surface finish etc.
Výrobní metody pro Stříbrný niklový prášek
Some prominent manufacturing techniques used to produce nickel silver alloy powder include:
Tabulka 6: Nickel Silver Powder Production Methods
| Metoda | Popis | Charakteristika |
|---|---|---|
| Atomizace plynu | Molten metal stream atomized by high-pressure gas jets into fine droplets | Spherical particles, good flow and packing, cleaner alloy |

Síla: Nickel silver powder is almost as strong as bronze while being more ductile. Strength can be optimized through appropriate compositions.
Odolnost proti korozi: Nickel silver alloys resist corrosion in water, moisture, acids etc. better than brass or copper powder. However, stainless steel powder has the best corrosion resistance.
Vodivost: Copper powder has the highest thermal and electrical conductivity followed by brass, bronze, and nickel silver in decreasing order. Stainless steel powder is not conductive.
Workability and Finish: Nickel silver powder can be easily machined, polished, soldered, brazed to achieve smooth shiny finishes comparable to silver. Stainless steel powder is the hardest to work with.
So whether the application calls for strength, corrosion protection, heat/electrical transfer, aesthetics, or affordability – nickel silver powder checks several boxes making it suitable across industries from automotive components to medical instruments.
Standards and Certifications for Stříbrný niklový prášek

Application-specific certifications may also be required by customers for uses in medical, aerospace, automotive, and electronics sectors depending on regional regulations.
Safety Measures When Handling Nickel Silver Powder
Like any fine grained metal powder, certain health and safety precautions must be taken while handling, transporting, storing and processing nickel silver powder:
- Wear protective gear – masks, eyewear, filters, gloves – to minimize inhalation and skin contact
- Use spark-resistant tools to prevent ignition in pure oxygen environments
- Ensure proper ventilation and point-of-use dust extraction equipment
- Keep away from heat, sparks, flames as powder dusts may be combustible
- Wash thoroughly after working with powders
- Follow local environmental regulations for waste disposal
Packaging and Transportation: Nickel alloy powders are packed inert gas-purged bottles, cans, drums etc. or with moisture-absorbing bags as they can oxidize and degrade over time. Regulatory classifications depend on composition, particle size distribution and bulk density.
Storage: Keep powder containers tightly sealed and stored properly by trained personnel. Avoid inventory getting too old or caking of particles.
Following safety data sheet (SDS) guidelines and having emergency procedures for spillage, fire hazard, accidents helps mitigate associated health and environment risks when storing tens or hundreds of kilograms of nickel silver powder.
Nejčastější dotazy
Q. Does nickel silver powder contain any silver?
A. No. Despite its name, nickel silver or German silver contains no elemental silver. It gets its silver appearance from having a high copper content alloyed with nickel and zinc.
Q. Is nickel silver powder same as brass powder?
A. No. Brass powder is a copper-zinc alloy while nickel silver powder also contains 10-30% nickel in addition to copper and zinc. The nickel gives it better corrosion resistance compared to brass.
Q. Why is nickel silver strong and hardened?
A. Nickel forms a solid solution alloy with copper by replacing some of its atoms in the crystalline lattice structure. This distortion at the atomic-level provides strengthening and hardening effects which makes nickel silver stronger than pure copper.
Q. Does nickel silver powder oxidize or corrode?
A. Yes, it can oxidize slowly over time in air forming a protective oxide layer on the surface similar to copper oxidation. Acidic environments can induce corrosion attacks by preferentially dissolving metals. Proper storage with inert gas blanketing and humidity controls prevents oxidation.
Q. Can nickel silver powder be 3D printed?
A. Yes. Nickel silver alloy powders with controlled particle size and spherical morphology are highly suited for 3D printing using binder jetting, laser powder bed fusion, and fused deposition modeling technologies. Parts with fine details and thin walls can be easily fabricated.
Q. Are nickel silver powders antimicrobial?
A. Yes. Scientific studies have shown 99.9% reduction in bacteria when nickel silver powder is incorporated into plastics or coatings. The oligodynamic effect from its high copper content gives it effective antimicrobial properties against a wide spectrum of microbes.
