About Nickel (Cathode) (Scrap)
Nickel cathode scrap consists of high-purity nickel recovered from industrial processing waste, battery recycling, and manufacturing offcuts, serving as a critical raw material for stainless steel production, superalloys, and electroplating. Traded primarily as cathode pieces, briquettes, and granules, international commerce follows London Metal Exchange (LME) specifications with purity grades typically exceeding 99.8%. Indonesia, the Philippines, and Russia dominate global supply, leveraging both primary smelting operations and established recycling infrastructure. Buyers should verify material provenance and conduct assay testing upon receipt, as contamination levels—particularly with iron, copper, or cobalt—directly impact downstream processing costs and final product quality in demanding aerospace and chemical applications.
