Nickel Mesh Electrode for PEM Electrolyzer Hydrogen Production in Industrial Electrolysis
Product Spotlights
Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory (established in 1998) is a trusted manufacturer specializing in high-quality wire mesh products. Our Nickel Mesh Electrode for PEM Electrolyzer Hydrogen Production is engineered to deliver exceptional performance in industrial electrolysis. With over two decades of experience and an annual export value of US$5-10 million, we supply reliable electrodes to global markets including North America, Europe, and Asia. This product combines superior conductivity, corrosion resistance, and precise mesh geometry to optimize hydrogen evolution efficiency in proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers.
Our nickel mesh electrodes are manufactured using high-purity nickel (99.9%+), ensuring minimal impurity interference during electrolysis. The uniform mesh structure provides a large surface area for electrochemical reactions, reducing overpotential and enhancing hydrogen production yield. Available in various mesh sizes, wire diameters, and dimensions, they can be customized to fit specific electrolyzer cell designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the typical mesh size for PEM electrolyzer electrodes?
A: Common mesh sizes range from 20 to 60 mesh, providing a balance between surface area and mechanical strength. We can customize based on your specific current density and electrolyte flow requirements. -
Q: Can the nickel mesh electrode be used in alkaline electrolyzers?
A: While primarily designed for PEM (acidic) environments, the high-purity nickel also performs well in alkaline conditions. However, we recommend consulting with our engineers for optimal performance in alkaline systems. -
Q: How do you ensure uniform mesh opening and consistent quality?
A: We use precision weaving machines and automated inspection systems. Each batch is tested for mesh count, wire diameter, and tensile strength. A quality certificate is provided with every shipment. -
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: For standard sizes, MOQ is 100 square meters. Custom sizes may have higher MOQ. We also offer samples for testing (shipping cost applies). -
Q: Do you provide surface treatment or coating options?
A: Yes, we can apply additional coatings such as platinum or iridium oxide upon request to enhance catalytic activity. Please contact us for details and pricing. -
Q: How long does production take?
A: For standard orders, production time is 15-20 working days. Custom orders may require 25-30 working days, depending on complexity. -
Q: What packaging do you use for export?
A: Electrodes are carefully packed in plywood pallets with protective layers to prevent damage during transit. We can also provide wooden crates for fragile or large sizes. -
Q: Can you supply electrodes for research-scale electrolyzers (e.g., 10 cm²)?
A: Absolutely. We support both R&D and industrial projects. Small custom-cut pieces are available with shorter lead times.
