Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory (established 1998) is proud to offer our premium Electroformed Nickel Electrode Mesh for Hydrogen Generation, designed specifically for high-efficiency water electrolysis and green hydrogen production. With 80 mesh and 0.1mm thickness, this mesh provides an optimal balance of surface area and electrolyte flow, enabling superior gas evolution and reduced overpotential. Our two decades of wire mesh manufacturing expertise ensure consistent quality, tight tolerances, and reliable performance in demanding electrochemical environments.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- High-Purity Nickel: Made from 99.9% minimum nickel, offering excellent corrosion resistance in alkaline electrolytes (e.g., KOH or NaOH) and long service life.
- Electroformed Structure: The electroforming process creates a uniform, smooth surface with precise opening sizes, reducing localized current density variations and improving hydrogen evolution efficiency.
- 80 Mesh × 0.1mm Thickness: This specific configuration provides a large active surface area while maintaining adequate mechanical strength and low electrical resistance. The open area is approximately 34%, facilitating efficient gas bubble release.
- High Conductivity: Nickel's inherent electrical conductivity (approx. 14% IACS) minimizes ohmic losses, enhancing overall energy efficiency of the electrolysis process.
- Customizable Dimensions: Available in rolls or sheets, with custom width and length to fit your electrolyzer stack design. Thickness and mesh count can also be adjusted upon request.
- Thermal Stability: Nickel maintains its properties at typical operating temperatures of alkaline electrolyzers (60–80°C), ensuring consistent performance.

Benefits for Hydrogen Generation Applications
- Enhanced Gas Evolution: The mesh structure provides numerous nucleation sites for hydrogen bubbles, promoting rapid detachment and reducing bubble coverage, which lowers cell voltage.
- Lower Energy Consumption: By minimizing overpotential and ohmic losses, our mesh electrode can contribute to a 5–10% reduction in electrolysis energy consumption compared to standard expanded metal or woven mesh electrodes.
- Durability in Alkaline Environment: Nickel’s high resistance to corrosion in alkaline media ensures stable performance over thousands of operating hours, reducing replacement frequency.
- Uniform Current Distribution: The electroformed structure ensures consistent electrical conductivity across the entire mesh, preventing hot spots and uneven hydrogen production.
- Lightweight & Flexible: At 0.1mm thickness, the mesh is easy to handle, cut, and integrate into existing electrolyzer assemblies without adding significant weight.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between electroformed mesh and woven mesh for hydrogen generation?
A: Electroformed mesh is made by electrodepositing nickel onto a patterned mandrel, resulting in a very smooth, uniform surface with precise openings. This structure reduces surface roughness and minimizes bubble adhesion, improving hydrogen evolution efficiency compared to woven mesh, which has overlapping wires and rougher surfaces. -
Q: Can this mesh be used in PEM electrolyzers?
A: Yes, it can be used as a flow field or current collector in PEM electrolyzers, provided the material compatibility with the acidic environment is considered. Nickel is typically used in alkaline electrolyzers; for PEM (acidic), a coating of precious metal (e.g., platinum or iridium) may be required. Please consult our technical team for specific application advice. -
Q: What dimensions are available?
A: Standard rolls are 1m wide × 30m long, or 1m × 1m sheets. Custom widths and lengths are available upon request. We can also cut to your exact size. -
Q: Is the mesh supplied with a protective coating?
A: The mesh is supplied in its natural nickel finish. If you require a protective coating (e.g., for storage or anti-oxidation), we can provide a light oil coating or vacuum packaging as an option. Otherwise, it is ready for immediate use. -
Q: How do I connect the mesh to the power supply?
A: The mesh can be spot-welded or clamped to a nickel or stainless steel bus bar. We recommend using nickel tabs or strips for low-resistance connections. We can also supply pre-tabbed mesh upon request. -
Q: What is the typical lifespan of this electrode in an alkaline electrolyzer?
A: Under normal operating conditions (30% KOH, 60–80°C, current density ≤ 500 mA/cm²), the mesh can last 2–5 years with minimal degradation. Actual lifespan depends on operating parameters and maintenance. -
Q: Do you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes, we offer free samples (A4 size or smaller) for evaluation. Shipping costs may apply. Please contact us with your requirements. -
Q: Can I get a custom mesh count or thickness?
A: Absolutely. Our electroforming process allows us to produce mesh with counts from 20 to 200 mesh and thicknesses from 0.05mm to 0.5mm. Minimum order quantities may apply for custom specifications.
